The complete edition of Sylvia Plath's prose including much
unpublished and previously uncollected material, edited by Peter K.
Steinberg. The Collected Prose stands alongside the Journals (2000)
and the two volume Letters (2017 and 2018) to support a more
complete understanding of Sylvia Plath's ambition and achievement
as a writer.Expanding on the selection published as Johnny Panic
and the Bible of Dreams (1977), this volume draws together all of
Sylvia Plath's shorter prose, much of which is previously
uncollected and unpublished. The volume embraces her experiments
with the short story and pieces of non-fiction from the 1940s
through to her more polished compositions of the fifties and early
sixties, including fragments of fiction as well as her journalism
and book reviews. Themes and associations become apparent as the
volume offers new, intertextual ways of reading across Plath's
oeuvre, colouring and shading our understanding and appreciation of
her extraordinary talent.From reviews of The Letters of Sylvia
Plath, Volume I: 1940-1956 and Volume II: 1956-1963:'Sylvia Plath
was not only a great poet, she also forged some of the best prose
of the twentieth century. . .she wrote letters of extraordinary wit
and vivacity. Their publication is a major literary event.' The
Times'These letters are by turns poignant, revelatory, banal,
hilarious and self-absorbed, documenting as they do the changing
moods, ambitions and intellectual and creative development of one
of the twentieth century's most celebrated poets.' Evening
Standard'Such was the impact of [Plath's] exploration of both inner
and outer landscapes in staggeringly intense, brutal and lyrical
language that her loss to the literary world has been mourned ever
since.' Financial Times

V januári 1965 Gabriel García Márquez cestoval s rodinou na
dovolenku do Acapulca, keď odrazu dostal nápad. Začul vravu
mestečka Macondo. Už vedel, ako napíše svoj nový román. Vrátil sa
domov, zatvoril sa do pracovne, a keď z nej po osemnástich
mesiacoch vyšiel, v ruke držal 1 300 strán rukopisu a bol šťastný.
Román Sto rokov samoty prvý raz vyšiel v roku 1967, Márquez mal
vtedy 39 rokov a svet si navždy zapamätal jeho meno. Dnes je román
považovaný za jedno z najvýznamnejších diel latinskoamerickej a
svetovej literatúry. Je komponovaný z množstva reálnych aj
fantazijných epizód a rozpráva o pôvabných i krutých príhodách
šiestich generácií rodiny Buendíovcov z fiktívneho mestečka
Macondo.
