EXILE'S RETURN
A LITERARY ODYSSEY OF THE 1920's
by Malcolm Cowley
"A unique book. It is the irre–
placeable account of the most
dramatic episode in American lit–
erary history, the story of the so–
called 'expatriates' after the First
World War and the how-and-why
of their
goin~
abroad and com–
ing home again. Malcolm Cowley
was the
man
who saw and lived it
all."
-VAN WYCK BROOKS
Originally published in 1934,
Exile's R eturn
is an informal
and personalized history of the
"lost generation" that illuminates,
through personal memoir and an–
ecdote, the current of ideas that
moved beneath the tumultuous
literary life of the time. For the
new edition Cowley
has
rounded
out the story with new material on
Ezra Pound, Scott Fitzgerald, Hart
Crane, Harry Crosby, and others.
A new introduction and an epi–
logue set the period and its gen–
uine achievements in perspective.
