20th Century American Literature: 1901-1910
By Tsk9653 on 04/27/2008
This quiz has received an Editor's Award for excellent content. Only the most unique and well written quizzes are
eligible for this award.
This quiz covers American literature published during the first decade of the twentieth century, namely from January 1, 1901 through December 31, 1910. As no particularly notable American poetry collections or dramas were published during this decade, this quiz features novelists and short story writers. With one exception, you are asked to identify the author of, or name of, a book published in the relevant decade from the information provided in each question. All of the authors and works presented continue to be relatively well known in the early twenty-first century, although some of these writers were at the beginning of their careers and some were near the end of their careers in the relevant decade.
The photograph accompanying this quiz is of the author who is the correct answer to question 6.
Depending on the response I receive to this quiz, I may create quizzes covering the American literature of other twentieth century decades.
