Abstract "A landmark biography of the great American writer Stephen Crane"-- Provided by publisher.
Abstract Stephen Crane transformed American literature through an avalanche of original short stories, novellas, poems, journalism, and war reportage before his life was cut short by tuberculosis at age twenty-eight. Auster casts a dazzled eye on Crane's astonishing originality and productivity. He provides insight into Crane's creative processes, and shows how Crane's life experiences, in rebounding from one perilous situation to the next, shaped his works. -- adapted from jacket
