Winesburg, Ohio Mass market paperbound - 2005
by Sherwood Anderson; Introduction by Irving Howe; Afterword by Dean Koontz
Inspired by Anderson's Midwestern boyhood and his observations in early 20th-century Chicago, the loosely connected stories in "Winesburg, Ohio" gave birth to the American story cycle, for which Faulkner, Fitzgerald, and later writers were forever indebted. Reissue.
Summary
Winesburg, Ohio, gave birth to the American story cycle, for which William Faulkner, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and later writers were forever indebted. Defying the prudish sensibilities of his time, Anderson never omitted anything adult, harsh, or shocking; instead he embraced frankness, truth, and the hidden depths everyone possesses. Here we meet young George Willard, a newspaper reporter with dreams; Kate Swift, the schoolteacher who attempts to seduce him; Wing Biddlebaum, a berry picker whose hands are the source of both his renown and shame; Alice Hindman, who has one last adventure; and all the other complex human beings whose portraits brought American literature into the modern age. Their stories make up a classic and place its author alongside the best of American writers.
With an Introduction by Irving Howe
and an Afterword by Dean Koontz

Media reviews
“A work of love, an attempt to break down the walls that divide one person from another, and also, in its own fashion, a celebration of small-town life in the lost days of goodwill and innocence.”—Malcolm Cowley
“He was the father of my whole generation of writers.”—William Faulkner
