Opis

Excerpt from Theodore Dreiser: America's Foremost Novelist Theodore Dreiser - A Portrait Whence he stares and wonders, Laughs, mocks, curses - Disordered, yet with a passion for order And classification - hence the habitual Folding into squares of a handkerchief. Or else a well cultivated and fruitful valley, But behind it unexplored fastnesses. Gorges, precipices, and heights Over which thunder clouds hang, From which lightning falls, Stirring up terrible shapes of prey That slink about in the blackness. The silence of him is terrifying As if you sat before the sphinx. The look of his eyes makes tubes of the air Through which you are magnified and analyzed. He needs nothing of you and wants nothing. He is alone and content, Self-mastered and beyond friendship, You could not hurt him. If he would allow himself to have a friend He could part with that friend forever And in a moment be lost in wonder Staring at a carved rooster on a doorstep, Or at an Italian woman Giving suck to a child On a seat in Washington Square. Soul enrapt demi-urge, Walking the earth, Stalking life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
