Présentation Two Lives de Janet Malcolm Format Broché
- Livre Littérature Générale
Résumé : Winner of the PEN/Jacqueline Bograd Weld Award for Biography: the story of the mystifying relationship between the brilliant and affable Gertrude Stein and her brooding companion, Alice B. Toklas
The portrait of the legendary couple that emerges from this work is unexpectedly charged. The two world wars Stein and Toklas lived through together are paralleled by the private war that went on between them. This war, as Malcolm learned, sometimes flared into bitter combat.
Two Lives is also a work of literary criticism. Even the most hermetic of [Stein's] writings are works of submerged autobiography, Malcolm writes. The key of 'I' will not unlock the door to their meaning--you need a crowbar for that--but will sometimes admit you to a kind of anteroom of suggestion. Whether unpacking the accessible Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas, in which Stein solves the koan of autobiography, or wrestling with The Making of Americans, a masterwork of magisterial disorder, Malcolm is stunningly perceptive.
Praise for the author:
[Janet Malcolm] is among the most intellectually provocative of authors . . .able to turn epiphanies of perception into explosions of insight.--David Lehman, Boston Globe
Not since Virginia Woolf has anyone thought so trenchantly about the strange art of biography.--Christopher Benfey
...Biographie: Janet Malcolm (1934-2021) was the author of The Journalistand the Murderer, The Silent Woman: Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes, and Reading Chekhov, among other books. She frequently wrote for The New Yorker and The New York Review of Books.
Sommaire: Janet Malcolm (1934-2021) was the author of The Journalistand the Murderer, The Silent Woman: Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes, and Reading Chekhov, among other books. She frequently wrote for The New Yorker and The New York Review of Books.
'Janet Malcolm deftly captures Alice B. Toklas's legendary 40-year partnership with the brilliant modernist Gertrude Stein.' Vogue (Books people are talking about) 'Malcolm's research into those murky wartime and post-war events reads like a great detective story... This short, cogently argued, wholly original book will irrevocably alter history's view of Stein and Toklas' Tom Rosenthal, The Daily Mail 'Malcolm's account of US Stein-criticism is fascinating. By framing her version of Stein's life within the story of how she reached it, she humanises her subject and, in conveying the origin of her own fascination, she increases ours. What she never does is simply give in and write anything approaching straight-forward biography.' Matthew Dennison, The Times 'Janet Malcolm also has the gift of keeping her readers glued to the page, and she peppers a fascinating story with her insights into biographical form.' Frances Wilson, Sunday Telegraph 'Almost everything Malcolm writes, though, germinates in the reader's mind.' Jeremy Treglown, The Spectator 'Even as Malcolm reports - drolly - on the intrigue-filled world of Stein-Toklas scholarship, she also provides a canny assessment of Stein's personality and achievement, the relationship with Toklas, and a telling if melancholy parable of the biographer's art.' Terry Castle, London Review of Books
