This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1919 edition. Excerpt: ... IX. SOME OF THE LATER ENGLISHMEN The Lesson of Laurence Sterne--The France of Kipling's "The Light That Failed"--The Trail of Stevenson--"R. L. S." in Paris, Fontainebleau, and Grez--Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes and Brigadier Gerard--" The Refugees"--Leonard Merrick's Tricotrin and His Haunts--The Paris of Arnold Bennett--The Writing of "The Old Wives' Tale"--W. J. Locke's "The Beloved Vagabond" and "Septimus"--Mr. Locke on His Own Characters. SINCE Laurence Sterne made the discovery that "they order this matter better in France," and wrote the "Sentimental Journey," English men of letters of all conditions and degrees of talent have been turning to the near-by land for direct inspiration and for occasional background. There is a Sir Walter Scott France in the pages of "Quentin Durward." The conventional beginning of a novel by G. P. R. James pictured two horsemen riding along a river bank, and in most cases the river bore a Gallic name. Whatever the political sympathies of Disraeli may have been, as a writer of fiction he invariably endowed his characters with a sympathetic appreciation of French art, literature, wines, and sauces. To mention only one of the novels of Bulwer-Lytton, there was the tale bearing the title: "The Parisians." Another Lytton wrote "Aux Italiens," beginning with the somewhat hackneyed lines "In Paris it was, at the Opera there." Essentially French was the genius of George Meredith. The story of Dickens and Thackeray in Paris and the French scenes and characters in their books has already been told, and the story of George Du Maurier and the city by the Seine that was so charmingly reflected in the pages of "Trilby," "Peter Ibbetson," and "The Martian." What of the younger men--the men of today or of the recent...

Woody Allen made the glamour of Paris in the twenties magical in Midnight In Paris--but was that really the case? The Lost Generation made up one of the most fascinating, eccentric, and diverse group of writers ever known--Ernest Hemmingway, James Joyce, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ezra Pound, and so many more collectively made up this artistic period in time. In this book, you will learn how and why the movement started, what it was like to be a writer in Paris, and what led to its fall. A list of essential reading from the period is also included in the book.

Trying to be Ernest Hemingway is never easy. After reading A Moveable Feast, aspiring novelist Enrique Vila-Matas moves to Paris to be closer to his literary idol, Ernest Hemingway. Surrounded by the writers, artists and eccentrics of '70s Parisian café culture, he dresses in black, buys two pairs of reading glasses, and smokes a pipe like Sartre. Now, in later life, he reflects on his youth while giving a three-day lecture on irony. And heâe(tm)s still convinced he looks like Hemingway. Never Any End to Paris is a hilarious, playful novel about literature and the art of writing, and how life never quite goes to plan.

The Spot is an old blacksmith shed in which three men tweeze apart the intricacies of a botched bank robbery. The Spot is a park on the Hudson River, where two lovers sense their affair is about to come to an end. The Spot is at the bottom of Niagara Falls, where the body of a young girl floats as if caught in the currents of her own tragic story. The Spot is in the ear of a Manhattan madman plagued by a noisy upstairs neighbor . The Spot is a suburban hospital room in which a young father confronts his son's potentially devastating diagnosis. The Spot is a dusty encampment in Nebraska where a gang of inept radicals plot a revolution. The Spot draws thirteen new stories together into a masterful collection that shows David Means at his finest: at once comically detached and wrenchingly affecting, expansive and concise, wildly inventive and firmly rooted in tradition. Means's work has earned him comparisons to Flannery O'Connor (London Review of Books), Alice Munro, Bob Dylan, Jack Kerouac (Newsday), Hemingway, Sherwood Anderson (Chicago Tribune/NPR), Denis Johnson (Entertainment Weekly), Poe, Chekhov, and Carver (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel), but the spot he has staked out in the American literary landscape is fully and originally his own.
