Sobre este artículo
NY: Vanguard Press, 1935. First edition. Inscribed by the author to Ira Gershwin, and with a secondary inscription from the author's brother-in-law, songwriter Lou Paley, to Gershwin, suggesting that "Buried somewhere in 'Studs' you'll find material for an excellent 10 hr. blackout." Consisting of three novels bound together-Young Lonigan, The Young Manhood of Studs Lonigan, and Judgement Day-Farrell strives to show the fall into spritual povery of the average American during the Great Depression. Full brown cloth over boards with gilt titling to spine, top edge black. Some overall edgewear, fraying along rear spine joint, mild stain to rear board, else very good with a harmonious association.
Sinopsis
Collected here in one volume is James T. Farrell's renowned trilogy of the youth, early manhood, and death of Studs Lonigan: Young Lonigan , The Young Manhood of Studs Lonigan , and Judgment Day . In this relentlessly naturalistic portrait, Studs starts out his life full of vigor and ambition, qualities that are crushed by the Chicago youth's limited social and economic environment. Studs's swaggering and vicious comrades, his narrow family, and his educational and religious background lead him to a life of futile dissipation. Ann Douglas provides an illuminating introductory essay to Farrell's masterpiece, one of the greatest novels of American literature.
