Autoren-Porträt von Thomas Wolfe
Thomas Wolfe, an emblematic figure of early 20th-century American literature, was born on October 3, 1900, in Asheville, North Carolina. Wolfe's literary contributions display a rare blend of autobiographical introspection and an expansive narrative style. This former student of Harvard University is best known for his highly acclaimed novel 'Look Homeward, Angel', published in 1929. The book draws heavily on the author's personal experiences, weaving the story of Eugene Gant, a character whose life in small-town America is palpably influenced by Wolfe's own upbringing in the South. Wolfe's profound exploration of the complexities of family life and the insatiable quest for self-identity laid bare the universal struggles of growth and aspiration. Following the resounding success of his debut, Wolfe continued to excavate the depths of the American spirit in 'Of Time and the River' (1935), a sequel that follows the protagonist into adulthood, embarking on a journey increasingly reflective of Wolfe's own wanderings and wrestles with nostalgia, ambition, and the inexorable flow of time. Though Wolfe's career was cut short by his untimely death in 1938 at the age of 37, his work remains a substantive part of the American literary canon, renowned for its lyrical intensity and philosophical breadth.
