- catalog abstract "Robert Penn Warren (1905-89), winner of the Pulitzer Prize for both poetry and fiction, the National Book Award, and the first official Poet Laureate of the United States, wrote just one collection of short fiction: his 1947 volume, The Circus in the Attic and Other Stories. The fourteen tales in this volume are of exceptionally high quality, yet have been virtually neglected by critics. His pervasive theme of the individual searching for self in an often hostile world has struck an immediate chord with many contemporary readers, and his wide range of literary endeavors has earned him the truly deserved title of man of letters. With Joseph Millichap's work, Warren will finally receive the attention he merits for his short fiction. Millichap argues that his shorter works serve as a window into Warren's writing style and demonstrate in embryo his steady commitment to the romance of southern history. The fourteen collected stories, along with several uncollected and unpublished works, are analyzed in tandem and also related to other works in Warren's broad canon. The book includes two essays by Warren himself and also provides an interview and an in-depth analysis of classic scholarship on Warren. A chronology and bibliography add useful elements to this study, a work sure to augment any reader's appreciation of one of our foremost southern writers.".
