Jane Bowles Poradie kníh

On the occasion of her centenary, Library of America presents the most complete edition ever published of Jane Bowles's incomparable fiction, along with an extensive selection of her frank, vivid and funny letters. The collection includes the novel Two Serious Ladies (1943) and the play In The Summer House (1954), as well as five short stories, two song lyrics, a play and a nonfiction sketch. It also features fragments from two abandoned novels, a section of Two Serious Ladies cut from an earlier draft, four abandoned stories, one unfinished play and one autobiographical fragment

Jane Bowles wrote very little: just one perfect novel, Two Serious Ladies, a play, the Summer House, and the dozen or so stories. But it was enough to establish a reputation as one of the twentieth century's most original fiction writers. This edition of Jane Bowles' stories comes with a biographical note and photos.

Stories by Jane Bowles and Denton Welch. Illustrated by Colter Jacobsen.

Dramatický text jedné z nejvýznamnějších představitelek moderní americké literatury.

This is a biography of American writer Jane Bowles. She produced a small collection of work including the novel Two Serious Ladies, her play In the Summer House and a book of stories, all characterized by her elliptical way of seeing things.

In den vorliegenden Briefen zeichnet Jane Bowles ein eindrucksvolles Bild von ihrer Auseinandersetzung mit einer Welt, deren Maßstäbe, Rituale und Gesetze ihren eigenen Visionen fern sind. Fast unmerklich wird klar, dass eins und eins nicht zwei sind, dass Widersprüche nebeneinander existieren und dass das Leben überhaupt sehr absurde Seiten hat.

Hrsg. von Hans Christian Meiser, enthält Geschichten von Oates, Joyce Carol; Bowles, Jane; und Barnes, Djuna. 286 Seiten.
