Description and Table of Contents
Description
There is no more exhilarating decade in the history of modern letters than the twenties in Paris. They were all there: Pound, Hemingway, Stein, Joyce, Dos Passos, Fitzgerald, MacLeish, Harry Crosby, H.D., Sinclair Lewis, Mina Loy, T.S. Eliot, Djuna Barnes, Ford Madox Ford, Mary Butts, William Carlos Williams, Sylvia Beach, Katherine Mansfield, Isadora and Raymond Duncan, Alice B. Toklas. Also there were Kay Boyle and Robert McAlmon - living, writing and observing from the inside out, not, as in so many other accounts of these golden years, from the outside looking in. This collaborative memoir began as a book written by McAlmon in 1934. In the late 1960s, Kay Boyle revised and edited the book and added alternating chapters of her own. The result is a marvellous chronicle of the period as seen through two sets of perceptive eyes.
