The Girls

Angebote / Angebote:

- Revives a lesser-known work by a Pulitzer Prize-winning author whose books were best-sellers and often the source of hit films (So Big, Giant, Cimarron, and Ice Palace).- Brings renewed attention to a writer who has often been dismissed as "middlebrow" or a writer of "women's fiction." Taps into a broader cultural interest in "middlebrow" literature, as evidenced by other reissues by New York Review of Books Classics and Persephone Books. - Reintroduces a novel that is set primarily in the city of Chicago and that can be shelved next to other great novels about that city (Humboldt's Gift, Native Son, The Adventures of Augie March, and The Pit).- Holds appeal for readers who are interested in women's fiction, women's history, and the developments of feminism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.
