The Greatest Books: Written by James Gould Cozzens

James Gould Cozzens

Nationality: American
Description: James Gould Cozzens (August 19, 1903 – August 9, 1978) was an American novelist and short story writer.
He is often grouped today with his contemporaries John O'Hara and John P. Marquand, but his work is generally considered more challenging. Despite initial critical acclaim, he achieved popularity only gradually.
Cozzens was a critic of modernism, and of realism more leftist than his own, and he was quoted in a featured article in Time as saying (perhaps somewhat in jest), "I can't read ten pages of Steinbeck without throwing up."
