Om författaren
Gertrude Stein (1874-1946) was a pivotal figure in the early 20th century avant-garde literary and artistic scene. An American novelist, poet, playwright, and art collector, she moved to Paris in 1903, where she established a salon that attracted the luminaries of modernist art and literature, such as Ernest Hemingway, Pablo Picasso, and Henri Matisse. Stein's approach to writing was marked by a radical experimentation with language, characterized by repetitive phrases, a disregard for conventional grammar, and a stream-of-consciousness style, all of which helped to reshape modern literature. Her work, 'Geography and Plays' (1922), is a collection of experimental pieces ranging from plays to prose poetry, and it reflects the stylistic and intellectual preoccupations of Stein's innovative literary endeavors. The volume offers a glimpse into her abstract manipulation of language and her pursuit to capture the essence of thought and experience beyond traditional narrative forms. Stein's contributions to literature and her influence on the modernist movement are enduring, and her unique prose continues to inspire and challenge readers and writers alike.
