Sinopsis

Lost in the American City gives a reading of developments in American urban culture, and analyzes the responses of Dickens (in American Notes ) and Henry James (in The American Scene ) to nineteenth-century and Modernist America, looking at both in light of the fear, expressed by Kafka, of the outsider becoming in America 'the man who was never heard of again.'
