The Triumph of the Egg - Paperback

by Sherwood Anderson (Author), Aaron C. Babcock (Introduction by), Kristin M. Distel (Introduction by)

The Triumph of the Egg, Sherwood Anderson's 1921 collection of poems and short stories, focuses on the alienating and disruptive moments of American small-town life. Similar in tone to its more famous sibling--Winesburg, Ohio--Triumph focuses on the driving issues of the early 20th c. Midwest: modernization, increasing industrialization, the growth of big business, and the Great Migration.
