Life and Adventures of Jack Engle An Auto-Biography; A Story of New York at the Present Time in which the Reader Will Find Some Familiar Characters【電子書籍】[ Walt Whitman ]
＜p＞In 1852, young Walt Whitmanーa down-on-his-luck housebuilder in Brooklynーwas hard at work writing two books. One would become one of the most famous volumes of poetry in American history, a free-verse revelation beloved the world over, ＜em＞Leaves of Grass＜/em＞. The other, a novel, would be published under a pseudonym and serialized in a newspaper. A short, rollicking story of orphanhood, avarice, and adventure in New York City, ＜em＞Life and Adventures of Jack Engle＜/em＞ appeared to little fanfare.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Then it disappeared.＜/p＞ ＜p＞No one laid eyes on it until 2016, when literary scholar Zachary Turpin, University of Houston, followed a paper trail deep into the Library of Congress, where the sole surviving copy of ＜em＞Jack Engle＜/em＞ has lain waiting for generations. Now, after more than 160 years, the University of Iowa Press is honored to reprint this lost work, restoring a missing piece of American literature by one of the world’s greatest authors, written as he verged on immortality.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
