As companion to its volume of Wilder's collected plays, The LOA edition of his early novels & stories brings together 5 novels that highlight his wit, erudition, innovative formal structures, & philosophical wisdom. Drawing on the post-collegiate year he spent in Rome, Wilder fashioned in "The Cabala" a tale of youthful enchantment w/ the Eternal City in the form of a fictitious memoir of an American student & the enigmatic coterie of noble Romans who draw him into their midst. He followed this debut novel 2 years later w/ "The Bridge of San Luis Rey", which catapulted him to literary prominence & earned him the first of his 3 Pulitzer prizes. "The Bridge", Wilder later wrote, "asked the question whether the intention that lies behind love was sufficient to justify the desperation of living." Set in 18th-century Peru, the book is a kind of theological detective story concerning a friar's investigations into the lives of 5 individuals before they were killed in a bridge collapse. An elegantly told parable, w/ credible historical ambience & psychologically rounded characters, "The Bridge of San Luis Rey" is primarily a probing inquiry into the nature of destiny & divine intention: Why did God allow these particular people to die? "The Woman of Andros", based on the Andria of Roman writer Terence, is a consideration of the ancient world filtered through the sensibility of a meditative courtesan; "Heaven's My Destination", a departure from Wilder's historical themes, is a picaresque romp through Depression-era America; & "The Ides of March" takes up the story of Julius Caesar's assassination by imagining the exchange of letters among such prominent ancient figures as Catullus, Cleopatra, Cicero, & Caesar himself, "groping in the open seas of his unlimited power for the first principles which should guide him." The volume concludes w/ a selection of early short stories, among them "Précautions Inutiles", published here for the first time, & a selection of essays that offers Wilder's insights into the works of Stein & Joyce, as well as a lecture on letter writers that bears on both "The Bridge of San Luis Rey" & "The Ides of March". * ABOUT THE EDITOR: J. D. MCCLATCHY (1945?2018) was the author of many books of poetry & essays, including "Plundered Hearts: New & Selected Poems" (2014), & the editor of 9 LOA publications. He wrote the libretto for Ned Rorem's operatic version of "Our Town", taught at Yale University, & served as editor of The Yale Review. * THE LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an award-winning, nonprofit program dedicated to publishing America's best & most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts. Hailed as "the most important book-publishing project in the nation's history" (Newsweek), this acclaimed series is restoring America's literary heritage in "the finest-looking, longest-lasting edition ever made" (New Republic).
