Founder of the Left Bank bookstore Shakespeare and Company and the first publisher of James Joyce's Ulysses, Sylvia Beach had a legendary facility for nurturing literary talent. In this first collection of her letters, we witness Beach's day-to-day dealings as bookseller and publisher to expatriate Paris. Friends and clients include Ernest Hemingway, Gertrude Stein, H. D., Ezra Pound, Janet Flanner, William Carlos Williams, F. Scott Fitzgerald, James Joyce, and Richard Wright. As librarian, publicist, publisher, and translator, Beach carved out a unique space for herself in English and French letters. This collection reveals Beach's charm and resourcefulness, sharing her negotiations with Marianne Moore to place Joyce's work in The Dial; her battle to curb the piracy of Ulysses in the United States; her struggle to keep Shakespeare and Company afloat during the Depression; and her complicated affair with the French bookstore owner Adrienne Monnier. These letters also recount Beach's childhood in New Jersey; her work in Serbia with the American Red Cross; her internment in a German prison camp; and her friendship with a new generation of expatriates in the 1950s and 1960s. Beach was the consummate American in Paris and a tireless champion of the avant-garde. Her warmth and wit made the Rue de l'Od on the heart of modernist Paris.Binding Type: Paperback

Keeps my sink area neat and organized
Color: Black, Size: Medium
Really happy with this sink caddy! The 304 stainless steel feels sturdy and looks nice, and the auto drain spout keeps water from pooling on the counter. The divided sections easily hold my sponge, brush, and soap bottle without taking up much space.
I also like the removable towel bar and that there was no installation needed. Redy to use right out of the box. Simple, practical, and very useful for keeping the sink area tidy.

it is good quality
Color: Black, Size: Medium
this is very sleek and handy. I like how it looks and sits on the counter. One thought the part the holds the dish cloth falls off when I take the dish cloth off. It is a minor issue, however, if there was a way to clip it more secure to the item, this would be ideal. thank yoo

Most importantly, its drainage system directs water into the tank, keeping it dry.
Color: Black, Size: Medium
This drain rack is small and fits perfectly on the edge of my sink. It's just the right size to hold hand soap and dishcloths, doesn't take up much space, and most importantly, it directs water directly into the sink, keeping it dry and keeping my sink clean and tidy.

Good product
Color: Black, Size: Medium
It is as described, looks neat and tidy on the sink. Just big enough to do what I need it to do. My sink stays dry because the wate goes back int the sink.
