- Synopsis
- 'To read Bolton's three novels in sequence is to relive the three major moments of the American half century' GORE VIDAL'Rapturous . . . a welcome revival' ANITA BROOKNER, SPECTATOR'Exquisitely stylish' GUARDIAN 'Bolton's writing about New York is immensely evocative, even astonishing at times' VIVIAN GORNICK, LOS ANGELES TIMES On their first publication, Isabel Bolton's novellas won high praise from such reviewers as Edmund Wilson and Diana Trilling (who in 1946 called her 'the most important new novelist in the English language to appear in years').Highly poetic, evocative stories of city life, the characters in these novellas are mirrored by the complexities of New York itself. Each carefully constructed narrative is built by the layering of conversation, perception, and inner monologue onto lyrical descriptions of a vibrating New York City. Out of print for many years, New York Mosaic brings together the finest fiction from this unique and timeless writer.
