His surrealist-influenced novels capture the absurdity and extremity of American life and the dark side of the American Dream. His most powerful novel, The Day of the Locust (1939), is a vivid exploration of the apocalyptic violence given release by the fantasies created by Hollywood, where West had been a screenwriter. His other work consisted of The Dream Life of Balso Snell Miss Lonelyhearts A Cool Million (1934), which satirizes the rags-to-riches dream of success. West and his wife died in a car accident. hut(2)

    Extractions: San Pedro High School in San Pedro, California After the death and destruction of World War II, Nathanael West became fascinated with the hypocrisy created by the capitalism of the 1920's. This American writer, who satirized the American Dream, wrote of the secret "inner life of the masses". This inner life was the power of dreams and desires that ultimately lead to violence. During the Depression West's novels reveal the absurdity of the American Dream. I. Biography West was born in 1903 in New York City, New York to Max and Anna (Wallenstein) Weinstein. His Jewish family was financially supported by his father, a construction contractor, and spiritually supported by his mother, with her traditional Jewish influence. West showed no ambition as a young man. While attending Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island West did not take his studies seriously. He would draw cartoons and write short surrealistic stories. During his time at Brown, West became a friend of S.J. Perelman, who later married West's sister. In 1926, two years after graduating with a PhD, he changed his name from Nathan Weinstein to Nathanael West. He spent a few years in Paris where he wrote his first novel, The Dream Life of Balso Snell When West returned home he managed two small hotels, The Kenmore Hall (1927) and the Sutton Club Hotel (1930-1933). During this time, West would provide free board to many interesting aspiring writers. In the early thirties West worked as a journalist. His experiences as a hotel manager and journalist gave him the inspiration and material for his second novel

Library of America, 829 pages, $35. Late in 1926, a 23-year-old graduate of Brown University changed his name from Nathan Weinstein to Nathanael West and left for Paris to think about being a writer. "I was asked to all the parties," West would write later and this, rather than any substantial work on his fiction, was proof to him that his expatriation had been a success. For West, whose enigmatic, darkly funny novels went on to garner praise from F. Scott Fitzgerald and Edmund Wilson, becoming a writer meant first developing a persona that would simultaneously attract artists and perplex "tourists and the folks back home." The Dream Life of Balso Snell (1931) through his inspired novel of Hollywood, The Day of the Locust (1939), West developed a style of Dada-inspired "superrealism" that would amplify the anger, the secrets, and the fantasies of Depression-era America.

    Extractions: RELIGIOUS STUDIES HOME DEPARTMENT FACULTY UNDERGRADUATE ... PARTNERSHIPS Kevin Lewis One should begin by declaring one's interest. For me, literature and its criticism is a sub-field of the history of ideas. And what I care about in literature (and all the arts) is the powerful contribution it makes, in its privileged language, to the discussion, implicit as well as explicit, in every period and place, of the ideas through which we chart our relations to each other, to the past, the future, and the elusive transcendent. My subject here - it has a long resonance in the history of western ideas - is the enduring European American myth of apocalypse: that narrative myth which, for three and a half centuries, in various forms, like a reaction formation to provocation or trauma, has made responding protest to the primary and preferred myth of American self-understanding through the 'city on a hill,' the 'last best hope, the New Eden, the New Adam, and the comprehensive prosperity gospel of the American Dream itself. I will proceed first by summarizing an insightful analytic observation by the extraordinary Canadian Americanist scholar, Sacvan Bercovitch, linking these two myths; then by, drawing attention to the curious personality and career in prophecy as a fiction writer of Nathanael West, now dead for nearly sixty years; then by casting the great un-read American classic, and still the best novel written about Hollywood, West's
