![]() Gertrude Stein
A novel written in the style of an autobiography by her lover, Alice B. Toklas.
Consists of word clusters chosen for their prosody, juxtaposed for the purpose of subverting commonplace dictionary meanings which Stein believed had largely lost their expressive force and ability to communicate.
Gertrude Stein's first published work. The book is separated into three novellas, "The Good Anna," "Melanctha," and "The Gentle Lena." The 3 stories are independent of each other, but all are set in the fictional town of Bridgepoint.
Three Lives, 1909
