Reviews
Kovadlo and Batchelor have edited a thoughtful, worthwhile volume on novelist and essayist Michael Chabon. The book is divided into sections that situate Chabon in relationship to popular culture; genre conventions; ethnicity and gender; and Chabon as a writer, noting training and earlier literary movements that influenced him. The editors' lucid introduction points out the paucity of scholarship on Chabon in comparison to such contemporaries as David Foster Wallace, Junot Diaz, and Jonathan Franzen, as well as to such forebears as Updike, Mailer, and Roth 'at similar points in their careers.' The volume is illuminating throughout. Batchelor, for instance, makes a persuasive comparison of Chabon's flawed but likable protagonist Grady Tripp, from Wonder Boys, with counterparts in film (the Coen Brothers' Jeff Lebowski) and in politics (Bill Clinton). Stephen Hock traces the pervasive influence of comic books on Chabon's subject matter. Josef Benson examines 'queer masculinities' in Chabon's fiction and nonfiction. David McKay Powell supplies a careful, close reading of Chabon's Wonder Boys that locates possible parallels in the novel to Chabon's development as a gifted writer with an expansive imagination. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty., Kovadlo and Batchelor have edited a thoughtful, worthwhile volume on novelist and essayist Michael Chabon.
