Sylvia Plath Day by Day, Volume 1: 1932-1955
ISBN: 9781496835000 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Since Sylvia Plath’s death in 1963, she has become the subject of a constant stream of books, biographies, and articles. She has been hailed as a groundbreaking poet for her starkly beautiful poems in Ariel and as a brilliant forerunner of the feminist coming-of-age novel in her semiautobiographical The Bell Jar. Each new biography has offered insight and sources with which to measure Plath’s life and influence. Sylvia Plath Day by Day, a two-volume series, offers a distillation of this data without the inherent bias of a narrative. Volume 1 commences with Plath’s birth in Boston in...

Reading Biography
ISBN: 9780595337477 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Most book reviewers know very little about the history or the art of biography. Indeed, if there is any art in biography, it is the rare reviewer that acknowledges it or knows how to discuss it. Usually the reviewer regards biography as an occasion to wax eloquent about what he or she thinks of the subject. Little space, if any, is devoted to the biography's structure or style, to the biographer's peculiar problems, or to how the biography relates to others about the same subject.

Amy Lowell Anew: A Biography
ISBN: 9781442223929 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The controversial American poet Amy Lowell (1874-1925), a founding member of the Imagist group that included D. H. Lawrence and H. D., excelled as the impresario for the "new poetry" that became news across the U. S. in the years after World War I. Maligned by T. S. Eliot as the "demon saleswoman" of poetry, and ridiculed by Ezra Pound, Lowell has been treated by previous biographers as an obese, sex-starved, inferior poet who smoked cigars and made a spectacle of herself, canvassing the country on lecture tours that drew crowds in the hundreds for her electrifying performances. In fact,...

Rebecca West and the God That Failed: Essays
ISBN: 9780595362271 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. After completing his biography of Rebecca West in 1995, Carl Rollyson felt bereft. As his wife said, 'Rebecca was such good company." He had already embarked on another biography, but Rebecca kept beckoning him. He felt there was more to say about her politics-a misunderstood part of her repertoire as reporter and novelist. And had he done justice to her enormous sense of fun and humor? He regretted excising the portrait of her he wanted to put at the beginning of his biography. His editor kept cutting away at what he called Rollyson's doorstop of a book. And then after years of waiting,...

Also taking advantage of his own work as a biographer, Rollyson has...
