Description
I will showcase three to four main aspects of 1960s history that is reflected through literature, utilizing at least fifteen major novels as a reference point of what was going on. This will touch base with the start of the baby boomer generation, the turmoil over race and social distinction, feminism, and disillusionment with the system. By doing so, I hope this study will appropriately echo the times and thoughts of America during the '60s.
