Title: In an Unpublished Note, Thomas Wolfe Writes That He Has Arrived In Normandy
Author: Thomas Wolfe
Seller: The Raab Collection (United States)
Description: 21/06/1930. William Faulkner once said that Thomas Wolfe, who died before age 40, may have been the greatest talent of his generation for aiming higher than any other writer. His influence extends to the writings of Beat Generation writer Jack Kerouac, and to authors Ray Bradbury and Philip Roth, among others. He was one of the first masters of autobiographical fiction, and his work was filled with details that came from his own life and his home in North Carolina, as well as that of his friends in New York.Henry Hart was an editor at Scribner’s. The two had a close and long relationship and corresponded as friends. In Christmas 1930 Wolfe wrote to Hart, with some cheeky remarks, one referencing Oscar Wilde and the other Calvin Coolidge.Autograph postcard signed, June 21, likely 1930, from Rouen, to Hart. ""Dear Henry, I finally got here, in order to uphold your reputation for veracity. Don't know how long I'll stay. Sedgewick, your other novelist, came down from Paris with me but has now gone back.""
