The Lost Generation

This anthology brings together under one cover the works of American, British, and French authors born in the early 20th century. Their lives and works marked an entire era, aptly, though not without irony, dubbed the "Jazz Age" by Ernest Hemingway.
The pages of the book transport us to the whirlwind of the 1920s, where jazz reigns supreme and life pulsates with contrasts: from wild revelry to deep melancholy. We meet the characters of F. Scott Fitzgerald's stories, dancing to the infectious melodies at lavish parties, and delve into William Faulkner's memories of military service. Ernest Hemingway's autobiographical novellas lay bare the soul of the "Lost Generation," while Thomas Wolfe's novels explore the depths of human psychology.
The poems of this generation's representatives, both British and French, are infused with the echoes of World War I. Guillaume Apollinaire, Ezra Pound, Wilfred Owen, and Mary Borden, through their works, unveil the pain of loss, the horror of battle, and the search for meaning in postwar chaos.

This anthology is not merely a collection of works; it is a holistic portrait of an entire generation that, having endured the horrors of war, did not lose faith in life and enriched the world with literary masterpieces that continue to impress with their depth and sincerity.
