New York U. S. A.: Henry Holt and Co.. As New in Very Good+ dust jacket 1998. Hardcover. Marfree, acidfree Fine 1stEd w/ 16pp glossy plates, perf-bound in brown 1/4 cloth, clipped dj (sepia); no names, not marked-in, underscored, clearance or discard. Mails from NYC usually within 12 hours.; Photographs; 1.26 x 9.44 x 6.55 Inches; 362 pages; From Publishers WeeklyBuried in New York City's potter's field, Hart Island, Powell had just one thing in common with the other people buried there?bad luck. The substance of this meticulously researched, well-written and sympathetic portrayal of Powell's life is how this talented and ambitious young country girl from Ohio made her way to Greenwich Village in 1918 and, over a span of 47 years, became the noted author of some 15 novels and more than 100 short stories, plays, poems, diaries and articles, only to be buried in a pauper's grave. Powell was largely forgotten until 1987, when Gore Vidal wrote an article about her in the New York Review of Books that led to the rediscovery and reprinting of her books. Page, Pulitzer Prize-winning classical music critic at the Washington Post and a longtime writer on Glenn Gould, became an early and devoted literary champion and started work on this biography in 1991. The principal theme of Powell's novels reflects on her own experiences in Ohio and New York, about young provincials and worldly sophisticates, life in fleabag hotels and Park Avenue splendor, innocence and sophistication. She was witty and satirical, and wrote with an underplayed irony that was often mistaken for a lack of feeling. Powell's personal life was marked by tragedy: her 40-year marriage to a hard-drinking advertising executive was colored by her affairs and the birth of a mentally and emotionally impaired son. But throughout a restless and troubled life, Powell remained true to her art. In this first ever biography, she is well served by Page, who does a superb job establishing her right to an honored place in the pantheon of American letters. Editor, Ray Roberts; agent, Melanie Jackson. Copyright 1998 Reed .
