Description

The literary legacy of Gertrude Stein (1874-1946) consists of numerous works in which the traditional restraints of language are abandoned for spontaneous and surprising expression.

Her writings challenge the reader, yet also offer an inviting liberation, and because of this they have not only endured but proven highly influential.

The Gertrude Stein Reader collects fifty one of Stein's poems, stories, portraits, and plays, along with excerpts from Matisse, Picasso, and Gertrude Stein with Two Shorter Stories; A Book Concluding with As a Wife Has a Cow, A Love Story; Geography and Plays; An Acquaintance with a Description; and Useful Knowledge.

The extensive introduction provides a brief biography and explains the impact her work had on subsequent writers and artists.
