McAlmon, Robert (1896–1956),expatriate U.S. author, whose books, published mainly in France, made him a spokesman of the postwar nihilistic pessimists of the “lost generation.” His poems in free verse were published in
Explorations (1921),
The Portrait of a Generation (1926),
North America, Continent of Conjecture (1929), and
Not Alone Lost (1937).
Village: As It Happened Through a Fifteen Year Period (1924) is a group of impressionistic sketches showing the repressive effect of an American village on its youth, in the manner of Anderson's
Winesburg, Ohio. Being Geniuses Together (1938) is his autobiography, extended (1968) by
Kay Boyle, who interspersed chapters of her own recollections.
McAlmon and the Lost Generation (1962) is a self‐portrait created by Robert E. Knoll from autobiographical fragments.
