Om denne e-bog
Sherwood Anderson built his literary reputation on his to-the-point novels about American life.
When he turned his hand to poetry, he stayed on-message - producing a powerful collection of verse that sometimes punches hard enough to wind you.
'A New Testament' pulls together at-times visceral poems describing the people and places around him and themes including death, hunger and a visit from God.
Strap yourself in for a rugged ride!
The work of Sherwood Anderson is ideal for fans of authors he influenced, including Ernest Hemingway and John Steinbeck.
Sherwood Anderson (1876-1941) was an American novelist and short story writer. He became a copywriter and business owner in Ohio, but quit his business and his family after a nervous breakdown in 1912. A move to Chicago saw Anderson focus more on his writing as he mixed with well-known authors. His career was launched in 1919 by the short-story sequence 'Winesburg, Ohio', but he had by then published other titles, including the novels 'Windy McPherson's Son' and 'Marching Men' and a collection of prose poems, 'Mid-American Chants' (1918). His other bestseller, 'Dark Laughter', was published in 1925.
