Bliv medlem af LibraryThing for at finde ud af, om du vil kunne lide denne bog. Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. Gets bogged down by Mangione's over abundant love of juicy gossip about Writer's Project staff, but at first it's fascinating. And the gossip does tell a story: about the utterly quixotic idea of a state bureaucracy employing a lot of dissolute, highly individualistic, egotistical, wayward souls to work on a collective project that marvelously, in its short lifetime, actually largely succeeded in both chronicling and creating the culture of its time.

Almost 7000 authors--including Richard Wright, John Cheever, and Saul Bellow--were employed by this federal program, which saved many literary careers during the Depression and which also produced the best state guidebooks ever written. No library descriptions found. |
