Literature of the 1920s

The literature of the 1920s, often called the "Roaring Twenties," reflected a time of social change, modernism, and experimentation. Writers like F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway explored themes of disillusionment, the jazz age, and new freedoms, breaking away from traditional forms. Many works captured the excitement and chaos of post-World War I society, questioning values and exploring individual identity. This era's literature was innovative, emphasizing style and perspective, and it greatly influenced modern storytelling by blending realism with artistic experimentation.
