Description
This issue of Partisan Review, published in Fall 1957 as Volume XXIV, Number 4, is a literary and cultural journal featuring essays, criticism, fiction, and poetry. The contents include contributions by Sidney Hook, Flannery O'Connor, Alfred Kazin, Richard Wollheim, Marcel Proust, Robert Rosenblum, and Lenore G. Marshall. The issue presents topics such as socialism and liberation, literary analysis, modern art, and new conservatism in Britain. It also features poems by Juan Ramón Jiménez, Louis Simpson, May Swenson, and T. Weiss, as well as book reviews by R. W. Flint and Howard Nemerov. The journal is printed in black and white on paper, with a minimalist typographic cover and interior advertisements for contemporary books and literary works. The publication is representative of mid-20th-century American intellectual discourse.
