The Golden Age of Garbage in American Letters
A harsh critique of the postwar book trade and press, denouncing pro Roosevelt, pro‑Communist, and pro‑faction reviews. The piece cites the New York Herald Tribune and New York Times, condemning sensationalism, profiteering, and the decline of integrity in publishing, radio, and film culture. It notes authors chasing attention, lucrative reviews, and a political tilt in publishing. This reflection laments the commodification of literature and media amid a crowded market and sensational criticism.
