Readers will find both poignancy and possibility in the quotidian dramas of this collection.]]> 1157044 4.75 8 1 2008 2625426 1433101041 9781433101045 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2625426.The_Making_of_Americans_in_Paris_The_Autobiographies_of_Edith_Wharton_and_Gertrude_Stein 0.0 0 The Atlantic Monthly in 1933. Noel Sloboda shows that the authors pursued many of the same professional goals in these essays and in the book-length life writings that grew out of them, A Backward Glance (1934) and The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas (1933). By analyzing the personal and cultural contexts in which these works were produced, as well as subjects common to both of them, Sloboda illuminates a previously unrecognized solidarity between Wharton and Stein. The relationship between the authors is built upon careful analysis of A Backward Glance and The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas, and it is framed by a consideration of the markets into which their life writings were first released. The alignment of Wharton and Stein as life writers will be of interest to those studying autobiography, modern literature, and American women writers.]]> 1157044 4.75 8 1 2008 7202557 1449582966 9781449582968 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7202557-vampyr-verse 0.0 0 137645 3.89 38 1 429263 4.33 3 2 3190286 0.0 0 0 3190287 0.0 0 0 31262 3.59 22 1 2933334 4.00 2 0 36182 3.82 268 8 2092036 0.0 0 0 3190288 0.0 0 0 74688 3.45 1134 32 951404 4.50 2 2 1201706 4.00 6 3 1280393 4.09 22 4 1448864 5.00 1 1 1015646 5.00 1 1 1157044 4.75 8 1 2009
