Description

xxxvi, 925 p. : ill. ; 20 x 15 cm. American literature series. In "The Making of Americans," Gertrude Stein sets out to tell "a history of a family's progress," radically reworking the traditional family saga novel to encompass her vision of personality and psychological relationships. As the history progresses over three generations, Stein also meditates on her own writing, on the making of "The Making of Americans," and on America. Foreword by William H. Gass. Introduction by Steven Meyer. Brossura editoriale, coperta illustrata (b/n) in cartoncino flessibile plastificato lucido e colorato (b/n., rosso e blu). All'interno una fotografia della famiglia di Gertrude Stein (1881). Codice libreria 3403.
