Donald Windham : A Bio-Bibliography (1991) by Bruce Kellner
Bruce Kellner worked directly from the collection of
often-overlooked novelist Donald Windham to produce this reference work.
Entries on books, pamphlets, articles and criticism provided a
comprehensive record of Windham's literary development, critical
reception, failures, and achievements. According to Kellner, the public
has yet to fully embrace the quiet eloquence of Windham's work; like
authors Herman Melville and Gertrude Stein, he may be "vindicated by
time." Kellner introduces the bio-bibliography with a discussion of Donald
Windham's background, writing style, and reception by publishers and
readers. He likens Windham's subtle style to E.M. Forster, and he suggests
that America's action-oriented culture lacks patience for Windham's
offerings, which are homosexual but not erotic, Southern but not gothic.
The book, which includes an addendum to the introduction by Windham
himself, is divided into five parts: Books and Pamphlets, Books and
Pamphlets with Contributions, Contributions to Periodicals, Ephemera, and
Criticism and Biography. This book is valuable to students, scholars, and
general audiences of literature.
