Synopsis
This edition of the legendary classic of 20th century prose poetry is the second single-volume English-language edition since its original publication in 1914 by Claire Marie [Donald Evans].
Stein’s writing is as startlingly fresh as if published last month—or tomorrow. Here, objects, food, and rooms come into new perspective in Stein’s wonderfully original language. Everywhere and everything in Tender Buttons is a delicious linguistic concoction.

About the Author
Gertrude Stein (1874–1946) was an American novelist, poet, playwright, and art collector. Born in the Allegheny West neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and raised in Oakland, California, Stein moved to Paris in 1903, and made France her home for the remainder of her life. She hosted a Paris salon, where the leading figures of modernism in literature and art, such as Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sinclair Lewis, Ezra Pound, and Henri Matisse would meet.
From Library Journal
Self-published in 1914, this is one of the volumes that solidified Stein's reputation. Dividing the book into three sectionsAObjects, Food, and RoomsAStein attempts to form images using repetition and disjointed words. As the average person will find that it makes no sense at all, Stein's exercise in automatic writing remains in the realm of the literati.
