Arches & Light: The Fiction of John Gardner

by David Cowart

Arches and Light demonstrates the depth and complexity of Gardner’s fic­tion, as well as his utterly consistent moral vision. Cowart argues that Gard­ner’s career, from The Resurrection to Mickelsson’s Ghosts, reveals an incre­mental mastery and a remarkable single­ness of purpose.
