Summary
Step back into New York\'s sophisticated 1920s with Herbert S. Gorman\'s Gold by Gold. Published by the avant-garde house Boni & Liveright, this \"storyful novel\" explores the tragic delusions of mediocre artists in a rapidly changing society. Praised by contemporary critics as a \"remarkable novel\" with \"marvelous felicity of phrase,\" it remains a poignant time capsule of the era. Notably, Gorman was a contemporary and biographer of James Joyce, and his own prose reflects the poetic, detached style of the modernists. This copy features the original dust jacket with artwork reflecting the bold aesthetic of the mid-20s.
