A bold experimenter, her writing sparks with vitality, relishing in rhythm, repetition, sound and colour in its central vision: to prise apart language and association and find thrilling new ways to express the true essence of her subject with charming joie de vivre.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStein considered her shorter writings to be the truest expressions of her enrapturing style. Her fascination with people and personalities can be located in expressive portraits of close friends Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Cezanne, Jean Cocteau, and Juan Gris, whilst her decades-long relationship with Alice B. Toklas is immortalised with shimmering eroticism. There are also playful meditations on her unique writing process, conveying her serious delight in meddling with conventions of grammar and composition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eConfirmed Table of Contents: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Ada\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Portrait of Mabel Dodge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Matisse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Picasso\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Miss Fur and Miss Skeene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Flirting at the Bon Marche\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Susie Asado\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Preciosilla\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Sacred Emily\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    One\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Ladies Voices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Accents in Alsace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Idem the Same\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Cezanne\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    A Book Concluding with As A Wife Has a Cow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Van or Twenty Years Later\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    If I Told Him\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Juan Gris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Identify a Poem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    What Does She See When She Shuts Her Eyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Advertisments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    What Happened\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Jean Cocteau\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    A Movie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    A Waterfall and Piano\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e    Saint in Seven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Gertrude Stein","offers":[{"title":"Steerforth Press |  Paperback \/ softback | Trade paperback (US) |  2023-06-20","offer_id":44150883582207,"sku":"9781782278795","price":24.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0329\/9075\/7001\/products\/BNCImageAPI_c4fe6c72-c146-49a6-8104-864626ae7ae4.jpg?v=1680973370","url":"https:\/\/riverbookshop.com\/products\/9781782278795","provider":"River Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
