Résumé
This collection brings together the complete novels of Nathanael West, one of the most original and incisive writers of 20th-century American literature. Known for his dark humor, biting satire, and unflinching critique of society, West's works remain as thought-provoking and relevant today as they were at the time of their publication.
The Day of the Locust: A searing depiction of Hollywood's broken dreams and artificial glamour, this novel follows a cast of misfit characters as they navigate the disillusionment of the film industry.
Through vivid imagery and stark realism, West exposes the darker side of the American Dream. Miss Lonelyhearts: This haunting novella follows an advice columnist who becomes emotionally consumed by the desperate letters he receives. A profound exploration of human suffering, morality, and despair, it showcases West's ability to delve into the depths of the human psyche. A Cool Million: A satirical picaresque, this novel chronicles the absurd misadventures of Lemuel Pitkin, a young man seeking success in a society rife with greed and corruption.
West's sharp wit critiques the idealized notion of the self-made man in Depression-era America. The Dream Life of Balso Snell: West's first novel is a surreal and experimental work that offers a humorous yet grotesque exploration of art, identity, and absurdity. Richly illustrated, this collection celebrates West's literary legacy, showcasing his unique voice and uncompromising vision. Whether confronting societal illusions or exploring existential despair, these novels offer a profound and unforgettable reading experience that cements Nathanael West's place among the great American writers.
