Sobre este artículo
New York: Harpers, 1905. Hardcover. Good. First edition. Decorative red cloth stamped in gilt. Illustrated by Lucius W. Hitchcock. Cloth darkened and soiled, owner's name partially erased from front pastedown, a good only copy. Tarkington's sixth book. Filmed in 1921 by Roy William Neill, with leading man Thomas Meighan as Joe Louden, the ne'er-do-well of an Indiana town.
Sinopsis
A dry snow had fallen steadily throughout the still night, so that when a cold, upper wind cleared the sky gloriously in the morning the incongruous Indiana town shone in a white harmony - roof, ledge, and earth as evenly covered as by moonlight. There was no thaw; only where the line of factories followed the big bend of the frozen river, their distant chimneys like exclamation points on a blank page, was there a first threat against the supreme whiteness.
