Contemporary Literary Criticism

Novelists, dramatists, poets, and short story writers who are living, or who have died since 1959, are the primary focus of Contemporary Literary Criticism . Scriptwriters and other creative writers are also evaluated from a literary perspective. Each volume contains approximately 500 individual critical excerpts (about 20 per author), taken from books, magazines, literary reviews, newspapers and scholarly journals. Individual volumes contain an index to titles mentioned in that volume. A softbound cumulative title index is published annually.
