520    "This book focuses on the pivotal role which space and 
       spatiality assume in plot and narrative discourse of 
       contemporary U.S.-American literary narratives. Embarking 
       from a new, spatialized approach to cultural history and 
       particularly narrative theory that might also prove useful
       for neighboring philologies, Marcel Thoene hypothesizes 
       that the canon of novels selected represents a dialectic 
       of simultaneous affirmation and subversion of the American
       space myth. This results in an integrative and 
       emancipatory function of space reflecting the current 
       dynamic toward a more transcultural, diverse and 
       conflictive post-national U.S.-American society"--Provided
