The Day of the Locust
ISBN: 9780811224611 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Admired by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Dorothy Parker, and Dashiell Hammett, and hailed as one of the Best 100 English-language novels by Time magazine, The Day of the Locust continues to influence American writers, artists, and culture. Bob Dylan wrote the classic song Day of the Locusts in homage and Matt Groening s Homer Simpson is named after one of its characters. No novel more perfectly captures the nuttier side of Hollywood.

Vrcholný román a zároveň tvůrčí závěť Nathanaela Westa se sarkasticky trefuje do hollywoodské velkovýrobny amerických snů, nebo spíš do panoptika lidských typů potácejících se v jejích nižších patrech a na samém okraji. Krajinou oněch divotvorných náhražek nás provede rozkreslovač kulis Tod původem z kultivovaného východního pobřeží USA, jenž doufá, že tu najde inspiraci pro majestátní obraz zachycující požár prohnilého Los Angeles. Zaznamenává touhy těch, kdo si chtějí z tamějšího pozlátka urvat aspoň střípek, aby unikli fádnímu...

Nathanael West was only thirty-seven when he died in 1940, but his depictions of the sometimes comic, sometimes horrifying aspects of the American scene rival those of William Faulkner and Flannery O'Connor. A Cool Million, written in 1934, is a satiric Horatio Alger story set in the midst of the Depression. The Dream Life of Balso Snell (1931) was described by one critic as "a fantasy about some rather scatological adventures of the hero in the innards of the Trojan horse."

Praised by great writers from Flannery O Conner to Jonathan Lethem, Miss Lonelyhearts is an American classic. A newspaper reporter assigned to write the agony column in the depths of the Great Depression seeks respite from the poor souls who send in their sad letters, only to be further tormented by his viciously cynical editor, Shrike. This single volume of Miss Lonelyhearts features its original Alvin Lustig jacket design, as well as a new introduction by Harold Bloom, who calls it my favorite work of modern American fiction.
