Meer over het boek

Set against the backdrop of 1920s Manhattan, this work critiques consumerism and social indifference in urban life, presenting a city filled with both energy and despair. It showcases John Dos Passos' innovative writing style, employing narrative collages that foreshadow his later U.S.A. trilogy. Influenced by literary giants like James Joyce and T. S. Eliot, the book also draws parallels to the cinematic techniques of filmmaker Sergei Eisenstein, making it a significant exploration of modernist themes and forms.
