 Sylvia Beach and the Lost Generation, A History of Literary Paris in the Twenties and Thirties Noel Riley Fitch BIOGRAPHY/MEMOIR • 1985 • PAPER • 447 PAGES
A vivid portrait of life among the literary expatriates of post-WWI Paris, using Sylvia Beach as its central figure. Through anecdotes about Beach whose bookstore Shakespeare and Company would become an intellectual asylum for such figures as Joyce, Hemingway, Williams and Pound Fitch recreates the salons and the wild parties, while communicating the support and camaraderie binding this tight artistic circle.
