Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. "More in American" is a compelling collection of poetry by John V. A. Weaver that captures the vibrant, gritty, and authentic spirit of early 20th-century America. Written in the distinctive vernacular of the common person, Weaver's work eschews traditional poetic artifice in favor of the raw, rhythmic slang of the streets, shops, and urban neighborhoods. This collection serves as a linguistic time capsule, immortalizing the colloquialisms and social dynamics of the 1920s through poignant character sketches and evocative narratives. The poems within "More in American" explore themes of love, loss, ambition, and the daily struggles of the working class, all voiced in a language that was, at the time of its publication, considered a radical departure from literary norms. By elevating the "American" language to an art form, Weaver provides a unique window into the cultural identity and social landscape of a transforming nation. Readers interested in the evolution of American literature, linguistic history, and the evocative power of the common voice will find this work to be an essential and moving contribution to the American poetic canon. It remains a powerful testament to the beauty and depth found in the everyday speech of ordinary people.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
