Περιγραφή για The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze (Faber Editions): Introduced by Stephen Fry William Saroyan Faber & Faber

A Lost Great American Master: meet Jack Kerouac\'s inspiration in these heart-expanding tales of immigrant life in 1930s USA, introduced by superfan Stephen Fry.JACK KEROUAC: \'I loved him ... He just got me\'ARTHUR MILLER: \'The first to let it all hang out and write like a child in wonderland.\'KURT VONNEGUT: \'Still the greatest.\'JOSEPH HELLER: \'My primary inspiration.\'STEPHEN FRY: \'One of the most underrated writers of the century.\'I hadn\'t had a haircut in forty days and forty nights, and I was beginning to look like several violinists out of work.Depression-era San Francisco, home to the lost souls of many races: immigrants, struggling writers and heartsick adolescents, collecting in automats, nightschools, movies and barbershops, working in vineyards, telegram exchanges and as salesmen - and always revelling in being alive.A bestseller on publication in 1934, The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze was the debut collection by the Pulitzer Prize-winning (and rejecting) Armenian-American writer William Saroyan. Fusing Whitman\'s transcendence with the eccentric characterisation of Steinbeck and Salinger, and foreshadowing the rhapsodies of the Beats, his prose is a heart-expanding experience that intoxicates to this day.
