Title: The Two Worlds of William March
Description: “Described by José Garcia Villa as America's ‘greatest short story writer,'by Alistair Cooke as the ‘the unrecognized genius of our time,'and by his biographer as ‘one of the most remarkable, talented, and shamefully neglected writers that America has pro- duced,'William March (1893–1954) is remembered, if at all, for The Bad Seed, which March ironically regarded as his worst work. The emphasis in The Two Worlds of William March is on the literary career, and we get a fairly full picture of a hardworking, oversensitive, compassionate bachelor, who suffered a tragic breakdown late in life... [and] whose best long works, Company K and The Looking-Glass, as well as March himself are almost forgotten.... Simmonds's comprehensive, scholarly, and sympathetic study may redress this unwarranted neglect.” —CHOICE
