A biography of B Traven, an enigmatic writer whose readership spread across broader class, race, and language divides than anyone else writing during the twentieth century. It discusses Traven's alternative histories, followed by an attempt to find out the major influences of this elusive man.
In this book, Roy Pateman provides the most reader-friendly, up to date biography of B. Traven, an enigmatic writer whose readership spread across broader class, race, and language divides more than anyone else writing during the twentieth century. This unconventional biography discusses Traven''s alternative histories, followed by an attempt to find out the major influences of this elusive man. Pateman addresses Traven''s politics, his life of humanist anarchism, and discusses all of his works (in English and German), emphasizing The Death Ship, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, and the "Jungle Sextet." Also included is a chronology of Traven''s life, which is fuller than that found in any other study. The book ends with a modest solution to the intractable problem of who Traven really was and where he was born and raised.
