By Helen Mondloch
Batten down the hatches for a whirlwind theatrical tour of American literature. Your guide is the Breeze—a timeless and irrepressible observer of the national experience.
Your six-act journey begins on a colonial breeze, rises to higher ground on the winds of reason, gusts to Romantic glory, transforms itself in a Transcendental tempest, hits a rugged cold front called Realism, then veers into unchartered territory on a modern El Nino.
Along this turbulent ride, the Breeze ushers in writers who expound their works and the times in which they lived. An abundance of primary sourced material imbues their voices with richness and authenticity. They are bolstered by a crew of commentators—a sage optimist, a blustering cynic, and a rowdy chorus—who spice this journey with humor and perspective.
Offering vivid snapshots of the American literary scene from the Puritans to the Contemporaries, An American Breeze entertains and illuminates. It weaves history, horseplay, and the language of literature into the fabric of an unforgettable story.
