Lädt ... Charmed Circle: Gertrude Stein and Company (1974)344 | 3 | 75,124 |
(3.76) | 11 | "On almost every Saturday of the first half of the twentieth century, Gertrude Stein would open her door to the likes of Picasso and Matisse, Hemingway and Fitzgerald, Cocteau and Apollinaire, welcoming them into a salon alive with vivid avant-garde paintings and sparkling intellectual conversation. In Charmed Circle, James R. Mellow has re-created this fascinating world and the complex woman who dominated it. His engaging narrative illuminates Stein's writing--now celebrated along with the work of such literary giants as Joyce and Woolf--including her difficult early periods, which adapted cubism and abstraction to the written word. Rich with detail and insight, it conveys both the serene rhythms of daily life with her devoted partner, Alice B. Toklas, and the radical pulse and dramatic upheavals of her exciting era."--… (mehr) |

A visitor to the studio at 27, rue Fleurus in the early years of the twentieth century might well have believed he had been admitted to an entirely new form of institution -- a ministry of propaganda for modern art. | |
