    Thomas wolf ( 1900-1938 ) he was American writer. Encyclopedia of 20 th century fiction states that wolf was major American novelist of first half of 20 th century. Have reputation rest largely on impact of his first novel look homeward angle and short fiction that appeared during last years of his life . Along with William Faulkner. He is considered one of most important authors of southern renaissance within American literary canon . He remains important writer in modern American literature, as one of first masters of autobiographical fiction, is considered among North Carolina most famous writers. Iam so sorry to be little long but reading and writing both are great ways to improve our English as non native speakers. I hope we became friends from now on. My name is khatoon it’s Turkish origin means Nobel lady as princess.
