Winesburg, Ohio
'Eines der schönsten und melancholischsten Werke der amerikanischen Literatur.' Daniel KehlmannSherwood Andersons elegisches Midwest-Epos in der für seine Lakonie gerühmten Übersetzung Eike Schönfelds - ein Schlüsselwerk der US-ModerneSehnsüchte, Hoffnungen und Träume bestimmen den Alltag der Menschen in Winesburg. Wing Biddlebaum verlor durch ein fatales Missverständnis seine Stelle als Lehrer und mit ihr seine Seelenruhe. Alice Hindman wartet auch elf Jahre nach deren Verschwinden noch verzweifelt auf die Rückkehr ihrer Jugendliebe. Der Arzt Mr. Reefy schreibt seit dem Tod seiner Frau Gedankensplitter auf kleine Zettel und wirft sie weg. Selbst die Existenz des jungen Lokalreporters George Willard, der neugierig all diese Schicksale sammelt, ist nicht frei von tragischen Verstrickungen. Schrullige, einsame Charaktere bevölkern das Städtchen Winesburg in Ohio, einen Ort auf der literarischen Landkarte, dem Autoren bis heute ihre Reverenz erweisen.Mit der Neuübersetzung lässt sich die archaische Sprachgewalt dieses wegweisenden Klassikers der Moderne neu entdecken.

Winesburg, Ohio
Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of all time<BR><BR>Before Raymond Carver, John Cheever, and Richard Ford, there was Sherwood Anderson, who, with Winesburg, Ohio, charted a new direction in American fiction--evoking with lyrical simplicity quiet moments of epiphany in the lives of ordinary men and women. In a bed, elevated so that he can peer out the window, an old writer contemplates the fluttering of his heart and considers, as if viewing a pageant, the inhabitants of a small midwestern town. Their stories are about loneliness and alienation, passion and virginity, wealth and poverty, thrift and profligacy, carelessness and abandon. "Nothing quite like it has ever been done in America," wrote H. L. Mencken. "It is so vivid, so full of insight, so shiningly life-like and glowing, that the book is lifted into a category all its own."<BR><BR>With Commentary by Sherwood Anderson, Rebecca West, and Hart Crane

Winesburg, Ohio
There is within every human being a deep well of thinking over which a heavy iron lid is kept clamped. Winesburg, Ohio (1919) is Sherwood Anderson's masterpiece, a cycle of short stories concerning life in a small Ohio town at the end of the nineteenth century. At the centre is George Willard, a young reporter who becomes the confidant of the town's `grotesques' - solitary figures unable to communicate with others. George is their conduit for expression and solace from loneliness, but he has his own longings which eventually draw him away from home to seek a career in the city. He carries with him the dreams and unuttered words of remarkable characters such as Wing Biddlebaum, the disgraced former teacher, and the story-telling Doctor Parcival. The book has influenced many American writers, including ernest hemingway, William Faulkner, John Updike, Raymond Carver, and Joyce Carol Oates. It reshaped the development of the modern short story, turning the genre away from an emphasis upon plot towards a capability for illuminating the emotional lives of ordinary people. This new edition corrects errors in earlier editions and takes into account major criticism and textual scholarship of the last several decades. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Death in the woods-Morte nel bosco, The return-Il ritorno
Presentiamo qui due short stories di Sherwood Anderson, protagonista della Chicago Literary Renaissance e maestro del minimalismo americano, tratte dalla raccolta Death in the Woods and Other Stories (1933). Il primo racconto, Death in the Woods, è la storia di Mrs Grimes dalla giovinezza, quando lavorava nella fattoria del Tedesco e conobbe Jake, il futuro marito, fino al rinvenimento del suo cadavere nel bosco. Un evento che il narratore carica di significati simbolici e descrive come un'esperienza dal forte impatto estetico, al punto che la figura di Mrs Grimes ¿ presentata più volte come una persona silenziosa e anonima, che nessuno conosceva e che nessuno notava ¿ diventa il motore e il fulcro del racconto. Protagonista di The Return è John Holden, affermato architetto stabilitosi a New York, che decide di tornare dopo diciotto anni nella sua cittadina d'origine, per salutare (senza alcun preavviso) gli amici di un tempo. Quando si trova a sole dieci miglia di distanza, però, inizia a dubitare della sua decisione... L'incertezza emerge poco a poco come il tratto essenziale del personaggio, specie nel rapporto con le donne e con il figlio adolescente. Un ineludibile senso di inadeguatezza destina John alla solitudine e al silenzio, un silenzio che Anderson tenta di rompere raccontando la sua storia.

L' uomo diventato donna e altri racconti. Con testo a fronte
Il ragazzo appassionato di cavalli che rimane scioccato dalla scoperta che il suo allenatore preferito è in realtà un fanfarone che si intrattiene con le prostitute. Il giovane stalliere per passione che racconta così tante frottole alla ragazza di cui si è invaghito da perdere, forse, una delle grandi occasioni della sua vita. Il garzone di stalla che durante una serata solitaria scorge, guardandosi allo specchio, una ragazza spaventata, e si scopre un uomo nuovo dopo una notte di sconvolgenti avventure. In Voglio sapere perché, Sono uno stupido e L'uomo diventato donna tutti hanno qualcosa da nascondere, da rivelare e, soprattutto, da desiderare.
