William Dean Howells - The Rise of Silas Lapham, My Mark Twain, &c.
Anyone read any William Dean Howells? He was the 'father' of American realist literature by all accounts, notable for The Rise of Silas Lapham (1885) and was nicknamed the "Dean of American Letters". I came across his name in a Somerset Maugham short story, and I wonder if he's one of those...- Bick
