Bill Goldstein is a writer, journalist, and book critic. During a podcast appearance on The Book Review, he discussed various classic works of literature and essay collections while exploring the literary landscape of the 1920s. Goldstein mentioned Willa Cather's 1936 collection of essays, Not Under Forty, noting that it served as the origin for the title phrase of his own book regarding shifts in literary fashion. He examined the creative processes and publication histories of prominent authors, discussing Virginia Woolf as she worked on Jacob's Room and ultimately penned Mrs. Dalloway, a novel focused on exploring a character's internal life. Goldstein also touched upon E.M. Forster's work on A Passage to India, the late-year publication of T.S. Eliot's poem The Waste Land, and the early 1922 release of James Joyce's Ulysses. Furthermore, he analyzed the profound impact that both Ulysses and Marcel Proust's multi-volume novel In Search of Lost Time exerted on an entire array of contemporary writers. Through these historical and literary references, Goldstein illuminates a transformative era in modern literature.
