Produktinformationen zu „The Wheel of Life (ePub)“
Ellen Anderson Gholson Glasgow's 'The Wheel of Life' stands as a testament to the intricacies of human relationships and the inexorable forces of change and fate. Glasgow's narrative weaves through the lives of her characters with a psychological depth that brings to light the nuances of social stratification and personal struggle. Written during the Progressive Era, Glasgow's nuanced depiction of societal transitions reflects her mastery in capturing the zeitgeist of turn-of-the-century Southern society within her literary naturalism. Her style-marked by its rich, descriptive prose and careful character development-resonates with the works of her contemporaries, exploring themes of autonomy, evolution, and the human condition.
Ellen Glasgow, born in 1873, was a prominent Southern writer who provided a piercing critique of the genteel culture of the South. Glasgow often addressed the changing roles of women, the decline of aristocratic Southern families, and the hypocrisy she perceived within the social order of her time. Her personal experiences of feeling trapped within the confines of the conservative South no doubt informed her exploration of life's relentless cycle in 'The Wheel of Life', where the characters grapple with their limitations and the pressures of societal expectations.
'The Wheel of Life' is recommended for readers who are drawn to the complexity of human emotions and societal dynamics. Glasgow's skill as a novelist ensures that her audience is treated to a lush, character-driven journey through the challenges and transformations that life inexorably presents. The book is a compelling read for anyone interested in Southern literature, feminist themes, and the broader American literary canon of the early 20th century.

Autoren-Porträt von Ellen Anderson Gholson Glasgow
Ellen Anderson Gholson Glasgow (1873-1945) was an American novelist who portrayed the changing world of the contemporary South. Born into an old Virginia family in Richmond, Glasgow felt out of step with the conservative Southern aristocracy into which she was born, and her writing often reflects this tension. She developed a realistic literary style, portraying the downfall of the upper class with an astute psychological depth. Glasgow's most famous works include the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel 'In This Our Life' and 'The Wheel of Life', a penetrating examination of love and marriage set against the backdrop of early 20th-century New York, which scrutinizes the suffocating effects of social convention. Over the course of her career, she published 20 novels, a collection of poems, one of essays, and a set of memoirs published posthumously. Her novels often featured strong, independent female protagonists, challenging the gender norms and expectations of her time. Glasgow was a prominent figure of the Southern Literary Renaissance, and her work contributed importantly to the literary and cultural discussions of the South and the nation as a whole during the early part of the twentieth century.
