Sandstone Press Ltd 18 Bookshops
Book SynopsisAnne Scott has never housed her books in order of theme or author yet she knows where each of them is and the kind of life it has led. Some have been gifts but most have been chosen in bookshops unique in their style and possibilities. They have been observers of discovery, decisions, and marvels with her, following the line of her time and place. Some are everyday shops with a shelf of books in a corner, some are beginning again after long lives as churches, printing presses, medieval houses, a petrol-station. There are a few the author is too late to see: early print-houses and booksellers here too in this book, searched for and described, side by side with all the bookshops open now and busy with readers. Not one is like another. In one way, the book is a sequence about writing. But first it is a map of books and a life.Trade Review'It is a work of research, one built to last. Its 20,000 words are beautifully constructed, and not one seems out of place.'-Alan Pattullo, The Scotsman; 'An indispensable guide to bookshops lost and living and an at times moving tribute to impact of the bookshop on the open-minded and inquiring individual.'-Northwords Now

Springer Nature Switzerland AG The Preface: American Authorship in the Twentieth
Book SynopsisBuilding on insights from the fields of textual criticism, bibliography, narratology, authorship studies, and book history, The Preface: American Authorship in the Twentieth Century examines the role that prefaces played in the development of professional authorship in America. Many of the prefaces written by American writers in the twentieth century catalogue the shifting landscape of a more self-consciously professionalized trade, one fraught with tension and compromise, and influenced by evolving reading publics. With analyses of Willa Cather, Ring Lardner, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, Robert Penn Warren, and Toni Morrison, Ross K. Tangedal argues that writers used prefaces as a means of expanding and complicating authority over their work and, ultimately, as a way to write about their careers. Tangedal’s approach offers a new way of examining American writers in the evolving literary marketplace of the twentieth century.Table of ContentsIntroduction An Influence on the Public: Writers, Authors, Prefaces.- Chapter One People Have to Learn: Willa Cather’s Introductions to My Ántonia.- Chapter Two Stepping In or Turning Back: Ring Lardner and Authorial Refusal.- Chapter Three Inhibiting Signposts: F. Scott Fitzgerald and Authorial Anxiety.- Chapter Four The Will to Control: Ernest Hemingway and the Action of Writing.- Chapter Five The Awful Responsibility: Robert Penn Warren, Ralph Ellison, and Time.- Chapter Six A Safe Distance: Toni Morrison and the Search for Legacy.- Conclusion Every Given Moment Has Its Value: To Get a Proper Reading.
