In Contemporary Paris, A Narrator And Two Companions Explore The Life And Work Of Gertrude Stein: A Subversive Imagining Of A Truly Subversive Female Artist.Our Narrator Has A Lot Going On. Her Friend EvaS Cat Is MissingAlso, She Wonders, Where Is EvaS Husband. Their Other Friend Fanny Is Barely Around, And Not Because Of Her Job In Finance; She Is Tangled Up With No Less Than Three Lovers. And Gertrude Stein Is Ruining The NarratorS Life.She Is Trying To Write An Essay About Stein But It Seems Impossible. She Knows Too Much And Nothing At All About The Leading AvantGarde Thinker Of The Early Twentieth Century. There Are The Facts: Gertrude Stein Studied Psychology At Harvard And Medicine At Johns Hopkins, Then Quit; Curated Modern Art In Her Rented Apartment That Would Shake The World; Wrote Novels, Plays, Poetry, And Libretti That Are Incoherent And Brilliant; Felt Love At First Sight For Her Daring Wife, The Subject Of The Autobiography Of Alice B. Toklas.But So Much Is Out Of Reach. How Do We Put Ourselves Together? What Do We Lose To Become Modern? What Do We Find Beyond The Limits Of Language? Only A Book Like This, Only A Book By Deborah Levy, An Indelible Writer [And] Elliptical Genius (Dwight Garner, The New York Times Book Review), Could Attempt Such An Investigation. It Crashes Through Genre To Form Something Distinctively, Utterly NewAn Imaginative, Entertaining, And Scholarly Manifestation Befitting The Genius At Its Center. This Is My Year In Paris With Gertrude Stein.
