Summary "The Little Review, August 1915 (Vol. 2, No. 5)" by Various is a literary magazine published during the early 20th century. This monthly periodical features a range of essays, poems, and critiques highlighting contemporary topics in literature, art, and culture, with a particular focus on modern American life. Through its collection of works, it presents diverse voices addressing societal norms, personal struggles, and artistic expression during a time of significant cultural shifts. The opening of this edition presents several pieces, launching with "The American Family" by Ben Hecht, which dives into the oppressive dynamics within a family unit, particularly the generational conflict between mothers and daughters. Hecht portrays the mother's influence as both nurturing and suffocating, leading to a struggle for self-realization in the daughter. The writing exposes the complexities of familial love intertwined with societal expectations, emphasizing themes of rebellion and the preservation of tradition. Other contributions follow, including works by esteemed poets like Amy Lowell and Alexander Berkman, creating an eclectic tapestry of thought-provoking literature that reflect the tensions and aspirations of their time.
