Описание книги

This carefully edited collection of William Dean Howells has been designed and formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices.
William Dean Howells (1837-1920) was an American realist author, literary critic, and playwright. Nicknamed «The Dean of American Letters», he was particularly known for his tenure as editor of the Atlantic Monthly as well as his own prolific writings, including the Christmas story «Christmas Every Day», and the novels The Rise of Silas Lapham and A Traveler from Altruria. Howells is known to be the father of American realism, and a denouncer of the sentimental novel. He was the first American author to bring a realist aesthetic to the literature of the United States. His stories of Boston upper crust life set in the 1850s are highly regarded among scholars of American fiction.
