Jimmy Herf, an orphan who ends up in journalism, is the thread running through a choral narrative about New York in the early decades of the twentieth century. Dozens of characters cross paths in the city in a fragmentary structure that mixes ambition, war and disillusionment, capturing the pulse of the metropolis.
Novel originally published in 1925; this Spanish edition is a translation by José Robles Piquer. Volume 594 of the Contemporánea collection.
Intended for readers of American literary classics and for those seeking urban novels set in New York.
John Roderigo Dos Passos was an American novelist, most notable for his U.S.A. trilogy. He was a descendant of the Lee family of Virginia.
