Publisher Description: This coveted collection of short stories by Sherwood Anderson (including the "Unlighted Lamp" and "Out of Nothing to Nowhere," contains some of the author's most celebrated works. Between the two great wars of the twentieth century, Sherwood Anderson vastly influenced and shaped the course of American fiction. His talent was recognized early in his writing career by leaders of the Chicago literary movement. Theodore Dreiser became so impressed by his writing that he helped arrange for the publication of Sherwood's first two novels. His gifted talent as a writer of fiction soon became apparent, so much so, that his colloquial style began to have a major impact on the next generation of American writers, among which included such literary giants as William Faulkner, Ernest Hemingway, John Steinbeck, and Thomas Wolfe. |
