Vivid and Repulsive as the Truth by Djuna Barnes
T. S. Eliot recognized Djuna Barnes as "incontestably one of the most original writers of our time." This collection of Barnes's early work features journalism (including a firsthand account of the force-feeding endured by suffragettes and an interview with James Joyce), poetry ("The Book of Repulsive Women"), and stories ("Smoke").
In addition to her work as a visual artist, Djuna Barnes (1892–1982) wrote poetry, plays, newspaper and magazine articles, and short stories. A longtime resident of Greenwich Village, Barnes is regarded as an important voice of feminism, modernism, and lesbian culture. New York City–based writer Katharine Maller has edited several Dover titles, including The Dover Anthology of Cat Stories.
