Jordan J. Dominy is assistant professor of English at Savannah State University. He teaches and studies American and US southern literature and popular culture.
Southern Literature, Cold War Culture, and the Making of Modern America is an important book that adds a layer of texture and nuance to our understanding of twentieth-century southern literature. By placing key southern writers in dialogue with each other and in context with major national and international sociopolitical currents, Jordan Dominy demonstrates that southern writing resonates far beyond the region. In fact, the South functioned as a vital center, to use a key phrase from the book, that defined American political culture and continues to have a disproportionate influence today.--David A. Davis, author of World War I and Southern Modernism
