Explanation:

American modernist literature was a dominant trend in American literature between World War I and World War II. The modernist era highlighted innovation in the form and language of poetry and prose, as well as addressing contemporary topics such as race relations, gender, and the human condition.

Influenced by the First World War, many American modernist writers explored the psychological wounds and spiritual scars of the war experience. The economic crisis in America in the early 1930s also left a mark on literature, such as John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath. A related issue is the loss of self and the need for self-definition, as workers faded into the background of city life, unnoticed gears within a machine that yearned for self-definition. American modernists echoed the mid-nineteenth-century focus on "building a self" -a theme illustrated by Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby. Madness and its manifestations seem to be another favorite modernist theme, as seen in Eugene O'Neill's The Emperor Jones, Hemingway's The Battler, and Faulkner's That Evening Sun. However, all these negative aspects led to new hopes and aspirations, and the search for a new beginning, not only for contemporary individuals, but also for the fictional characters of American modernist literature.
