Manhattan Transfer

by John Dos Passos

Manhattan Transfer Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The classic depiction of a city's struggle to embrace modernity or risk being destroyed by it.

Review:

"Dos Passos has invented only one thing, an art of storytelling. But that is enough to create a universe." Jean Paul Sartre

Review:

"Dos Passos is the only major American novelist...who has had the desire and power to surround the lives of his characters with what Lionel Trilling once walled 'the buzz of history.'" Arthur Mizener
