Publisher, Date: London : Faber and Faber, 2025. ©2025 Description: 472 pages : illustrations (black and white) ; 25 cm Summary: From the celebrated author of Square Haunting comes a biography as unconventional and surprising as the life it tells. 'Think of the Bible and Homer, think of Shakespeare and think of me,' wrote Gertrude Stein in 1936. Admirers called her a genius, sceptics a charlatan: she remains one of the most confounding - and contested - writers of the twentieth century. In this literary detective story, Francesca Wade delves into the creation of the Stein myth. Subjects: Stein, Gertrude, 1874-1946.
