Youth and the Bright Medusa Willa Cather 'Youth and the Bright Medusa' is a collection of short stories by acclaimed American author Willa Cather. Beautifully written, the stories in this book all deal with artists and/or the arts. Unlike some stories which seem to be a slice of life with no plot or resolution, these stories all have an interesting story line and a clever or interesting resolution. All of the stories are entertaining enough to hold the reader's attention to the end. Readers who enjoy 20th century American literature will love Willa Cather. She is right up there with the likes of Edith Wharton, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Henry James. In the most spare, concise style, she wrings hearts as she digs into emotions and dreams. Among this stunning collection: "Paul's Case" - a Midwestern youth plans an escape with No Exit; "A Wagner Matinee" - an elderly aunt meets her nephew in Boston for a naked musical moment; "Coming Aphrodite!" - a young painter falls in love with an aspiring opera singer. However, in the words of Cather, "A big career takes its toll, even with the best of luck." Cather is an American great! We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience
