Love Summary On a "bright, frozen day" in December, a very old Negro lady named Phoenix Jackson carefully, haltingly walks through the woods and fields on her way to town. She talks to herself and the animals. She pauses to rest. A dog jumps at her and she falls into a ditch. A hunter comes along and helps her get up. Although she is completely worn out, she says, "I bound to go to town, Mister . . . The time come around." When she reaches town, she goes to the clinic where an attendant thinks, "A charity case, I suppose." But Phoenix has come to get "soothing medicine" for her grandson's throat. He swallowed lye years before and his throat never heals. "We is the only two left in the world . . ." The attendant gives her a nickel. She turns to go, planning to buy her grandson a paper windmill and then make the arduous trip home.

Eudora Welty Junikonsert Noveller Reapris ca: ISBN: Bandtyp: Inbunden Sidantal: Utkom: I Junikonsert presenteras Eudora Weltys novellkonst i ett urval som sträcker sig över hela hennes produktion, från 1940-tal till 1960-tal. Både publik och litteraturkritik framhåller Eudora Welty som en av de yppersta nu levande nordamerikanska prosaisterna, och knappast någon kan göra henne rangplatsen stridig som skildrare av den geografiska och mytiska verklighet som brukar kallas "The Deep South". Eudora Weltys noveller speglar den tid de växte ur, och skrevs som svar på samtiden. De sträcker sig från ett USA i depressionens skugga till den hårda desperationen i 60-talets raskonfrontationer i Mississippi. Det är noveller skrivna från det inre: från författarens inre, med också inifrån USA:s sydstater, det landskap Eudora Welty gjort till sitt och givit så tydliga konturer genom sina gestalters liv. Urval av Ulf Eriksson. Om sina gestalter har Eudora Welty sagt: "Både med uppskattning och som anklagelse har man talat om för mig att jag älskar alla mina figurer. Vad jag gör när jag skriver om en gestalt, är att jag söker tränga in i själ, hjärta och bakom huden på en människa som inte är jag. Vare sig det sker med män eller kvinnor, unga eller gamla, färgade eller vita, så ligger den yttersta utmaningen i att våga göra själva språnget. Det är den förmågan hos författarfantasin som jag sätter högst." Översättning Eva Sjöstrand Bokförlaget Natur och Kultur Tel: 08-453 86 00, Fax: 08-453 87 90

Welty, Eudora (1909- ), writer Eudora Welty was born in Jackson, Mississippi, on April 13, 1909. She attended Mississippi State College for Women before transferring to the University of Wisconsin, from which she graduated in 1929. During the Great Depression she was a photographer on the Works Progress Administration's Guide to Mississippi, and photography remained a lifelong interest. She also worked as a writer for a Jackson radio station and newspaper before her fiction won popular and critical acclaim. Welty's first short story was published in 1936, and thereafter her work began to appear regularly, first in such little magazines as the Southern Review and later in such magazines as the Atlantic Monthly and The New Yorker. Her readership grew steadily after the publication of A Curtain of Green (1941; enlarged 1979), a volume of short stories that contains two of her most anthologized stories"The Petrified Man" and "Why I Live at the P.O."

Welty, Eudora Sources American short story writer and novelist. Born in Jackson, Miss., and educated in the city's public schools, she began writing and drawing at a young age, and publishing poems and sketches in St. Nicholas magazine at age 11. She is known for the perceptive artistry of her studies of small town life in the Deep South. With an uncanny ear for colloquial speech, she writes with richly comic effect. Her sense of the universal and mysterious gives her work an almost mythological dimension. Her short story "The Wide Net" was published in the May 1942 issue of Harper's , just before her second novel the Robber Bridegroom appeared, which firmly established her reputation as a writer. Her many honors include the Pulitzer Prize, the American Book Award for fiction, the Gold Medal for the Novel by the National Institute of Arts and Letters, and a senior fellowship from the NEA.

EUDORA WELTY: Complete Novels Eudora Welty BIO Shortly after Welty's return home, her father died of leukemia. She took a variety of odd jobs. She was a scriptwriter, an editor of Lamar Life Radio News at WJIX, a publicity agent for the WPA, and Jackson's social news correspondent for the Memphis Commercial Appeal. Continuing to pursue a career in photography, she sent a group of her photographs to a New York publisher in 1935. They were rejected, but Welty persevered until Lugene Opticians sponsored an exhibition of her prints at the Photographic Galleries (March 31-April I5, 1936). She also submitted her short stories to a literary magazine Manuscript, in Athens, Ohio, which accepted Death of a Traveling Salesman" and "Magic." Eudora Welty continued to work on her short stories in 1937, sending several to Robert Penn Warren and Cleanth Brooks, editors of the newly established Southern Review at Louisiana State University. Welty was so discouraged when they returned her story, "Petrified Man," which other journals had also rejected, that she tore up her only copy of it. When Warren expressed second thoughts about his rejection, she rewrote the story from memory. In 1938 "Lily Daw and the Three Ladies" appeared in The Best Short Stories 1938, and in 1939 "A Curtain of Green" was chosen for The Best Short Stories 1939 and "Petrified Man" appeared in O. Henry Prize Stories of 1939, but her collections of short stories continued to be rejected by both English and American publishers.

60. Eudora Welty: Why I Live At The P.O. When you base other works on such texts, doublecheck with a printed source if possible. Why I Live at the PO by eudora welty. Copyright © eudora welty http://art-bin.com/art/or_weltypostoff.html

Please note: Why I Live at the P.O. by Eudora Welty I WAS GETTING ALONG FINE with Mama, Papa-Daddy and Uncle Rondo until my sister Stella-Rondo just separated from her husband and came back home again. Mr. Whitaker! Of course I went with Mr. Whitaker first, when he first appeared here in China Grove, taking "Pose Yourself" photos, and Stella-Rondo broke us up. Told him I was one-sided. Bigger on one side than the other, which is a deliberate, calculated falsehood: I'm the same. Stella-Rondo is exactly twelve months to the day younger than I am and for that reason she's spoiled. She's always had anything in the world she wanted and then she'd throw it away. Papa-Daddy gave her this gorgeous Add-a-Pearl necklace when she was eight years old and she threw it away playing baseball when she was nine, with only two pearls. So as soon as she got married and moved away from home the first thing she did was separate! From Mr. Whitaker! This photographer with the popeyes she said she trusted. Came home from one of those towns up in Illinois and to our complete surprise brought this child of two. Mama said she like to made her drop dead for a second. "Here you had this marvelous blonde child and never so much as wrote your mother a word about it," says Mama. "I'm thoroughly ashamed of you." But of course she wasn't.
