John Dos Passos
According to Wikipedia: " John Roderigo Dos Passos (January 14, 1896 ? September 28, 1970) was an American novelist and artist... Considered one of the Lost Generation writers, Dos Passos's first novel was published in 1920. Titled One Man's Initiation: 1917 it was followed by an antiwar story, Three Soldiers, which brought him considerable recognition... His major work is the U. S. A. trilogy comprising The 42nd Parallel (1930), Nineteen Nineteen or 1919 (1932), and The Big Money (1936). Dos Passos used experimental techniques in these novels, incorporating newspaper clippings, autobiography, biography and fictional realism to paint a vast landscape of American culture during the first decades of the twentieth century. Though each novel stands on its own, the trilogy is designed to be read as a whole. Dos Passos's political and social reflections in the novel are deeply pessimistic about the political and economic direction of the United States, and few of the characters manage to hold onto their ideals through the First World War... In an often cited 1936 essay, Sartre referred to Dos Passos as "the greatest writer of our time"."
