Item description from seller

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A vivid, piercing portrait of a man and a moment when literature drank from the cup of contradiction. Edgar Saltus; The Man invites readers to step inside fin-de-siècle America and meet a writer who split the era between decadence and longing for order.This concise, elegant study blends literary biography with a biographical sketch of Saltus as a man who shaped and unsettled early twentieth¿century fiction. It traces his do-or-die debates about art and decadence, his place among american literary figures, and the uneasy glamour that drew readers toward provocative, nuanced writing. The work serves as both a critical biography and a doorway for biography readers seeking a clear, human lens on a controversial figure whose reputation has outgrown simple labels.Its significance endures: a careful corroboration of Saltus's influence on Victorian America and the broader fin de siècle conversation, and a reminder of how ambitious, risky prose can ripple through generations. For casual readers, it renders a complex life accessible and engaging; for scholars and collectors, it offers carefully curated context that deepens academic study resources and library editions alike. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, this volume stands as a tribute to a singular voice in decadent american writers.…
