McCall is the author of seven novels, including Jack the Bear and Triphammer, and of critical studies of Richard Wright and Herman Melville. The inspiration for his latest book came several years ago when he wrote the preface to a Cornell University Press reissue of James's 1879 study, titled Hawthorne.

Dan McCall recommends
Hidden (2004)
Paul Jaskunas
"Hidden is a joy to read: the prose, line by line, is breathtaking, the characters come alive in all their complexity, the plot drives to a conclusion both shocking and inevitable. Hidden is a truly wonderful debut."
