520 _a"Literature in the Making, by Some of Its Makers" by Joyce Kilmer is a collection of literary essays written in the early 20th century. This work presents a series of interviews and discussions with notable authors of the time, exploring their thoughts on writing, the impact of war on literature, and the evolution of the literary landscape. The book likely delves into the challenges and philosophies of various writers, providing insights into the creative process and the state of literature during a pivotal era. The opening of the text introduces Kilmer's purpose in bridging the gap between literary theory and practice. He outlines his approach in gathering informal statements from established authors, revealing their experiences and philosophies regarding their craft. This initial section sets the tone for a broader discussion, featuring perspectives on topics such as the relationship between war and creativity, the role of women in literature, and the influence of commercial interests on artistic expression. Kilmer establishes a dialogue with these authors that aims to humanize them, highlighting their struggles, ideals, and the societal contexts they navigate in their work.
