Krátky popis
A revelatory narrative charting the lives and works of legendary
authors Virginia Woolf, T. S. Eliot, E. M. Forster and D. H.
Lawrence during 1922, the birth year of modernism 'The world broke
in two in 1922 or thereabouts,' the American author Willa Cather
once wrote. Yet for Virginia Woolf, T. S. Eliot, E. M. Forster and
D. H. Lawrence, 1922 began with a frighteningly blank page. Eliot
was in Switzerland recovering from a nervous breakdown. Forster was
grappling with unrequited love. Woolf and Lawrence, meanwhile, were
both in bed with the flu. Confronting illness, personal problems
and the spectral ghost of World War I, all four felt literally at a
loss for words. As dismal as things seemed, 1922 turned out to be a
year of outstanding creative renaissance for them all. By the end
of the year Woolf had started Mrs Dalloway, Forster had returned to
work on A Passage to India, Lawrence had written his heavily
autobiographical novel Kangaroo, and Eliot had finished - and
published to great acclaim - 'The Waste Land'. Full of surprising
insights and original research, Bill Goldstein's The World Broke in
Two chronicles the intertwined lives and works of these four
writers in a crucial year of change.
