The literary legacy of Gertrude Stein (1874-1946) consists of
numerous works in which the traditional restraints of language are
abandoned for spontaneous and surprising expression. Her writings
challenge the reader, yet also offer an inviting liberation, and
because of this they have not only endured but proven highly
influential. The Gertrude Stein Reader collects fifty one of
Stein's poems, stories, portraits, and plays, along with excerpts
from Matisse, Picasso, and Gertrude Stein with Two Shorter Stories;
A Book Concluding with As a Wife Has a Cow, A Love Story; Geography
and Plays; An Acquaintance with a Description; and Useful
Knowledge. The extensive introduction provides a brief biography
and explains the impact her work had on subsequent writers and
artists.
