Inhaltsangabe:

A Groundbreaking Experiment in Language, Perception, and Meaning

First published in 1914, Gertrude Stein’s Tender Buttons is a bold, revolutionary work that shattered literary conventions and helped define modernist literature.

Through three sections—Objects, Food, and Rooms—Stein transforms everyday things into extraordinary explorations of language and consciousness. Her playful, often enigmatic prose breaks apart familiar words and reassembles them in unexpected ways, challenging readers to look beyond surface meanings and discover new ways of seeing.

Celebrated by some and perplexing to others, Tender Buttons remains one of the most influential experiments in 20th-century literature—an unforgettable invitation to experience words as pure texture, sound, and sensation.

Perfect for readers who enjoy:
✅ Modernist literature and experimental writing
✅ Feminist literary history
✅ Works that push boundaries and ignite discussion

Step into Stein’s world—where language dances, objects come alive, and perception is forever transformed.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Gertrude Stein (1874–1946) was an American-Jewish writer, poet and art collector who spent most of her life in France. While living in Paris, Gertrude began writing for publication. Her earliest writings were mainly retellings of her college experiences. Her first critically acclaimed publication was Three Lives. Sherwood Anderson in his public introduction to Stein's 1922 publication of Geography and Plays wrote: “For me the work of Gertrude Stein consists in a rebuilding, an entirely new recasting of life, in the city of words. Here is one artist who has been able to accept ridicule, who has even forgone the privilege of writing the great American novel, uplifting our English speaking stage, and wearing the bays of the great poets to go live among the little housekeeping words, the swaggering bullying street-corner words, the honest working, money saving words and all the other forgotten and neglected citizens of the sacred and half forgotten city.
