Biographie de l'auteur

William Dean Howells (1837 - 1920) was a popular American novelist, literary critic, and journalist and one of the most renowned public figures of his time. He opposed American imperialism and was a great supporter of socialism. Howells published many novels, stories, plays, and poems during his life but is best known for A Modern Instance (1882) and The Rise of Silas Lapham (1885). This resolute critic of ethnic bigotry died at the age of 83 in New York City.

Présentation de l'éditeur

It was in the little office of James T. Fields, over the bookstore of Ticknor & Fields, at 124 Tremont Street, Boston, that I first met my friend of now forty-four years, Samuel L. Clemens. Mr. Fields was then the editor of The Atlantic Monthly, and I was his proud and glad assistant, with a pretty free hand as to manuscripts, and an unmanacled command of the book-notices at the end of the magazine.
