Tender Buttons

The first publisher of Tender Buttons described the book's effect on readers as ""something like terror, there are no known precedents to cling to."" This edition of Gertrude Stein's transformative work immerses the text in its cultural context. The most opaque of modernist texts, Tender Buttons also had modernism's most voluminous and varied response.

Primul editor al Tender Buttons a descris efectul cartii asupra cititorilor ca ,, ,,ceva ca teroarea, nu exista precedente cunoscute de care sa se agate." Aceasta editie a lucrarii transformatoare a lui Gertrude Stein scufunda textul in contextul sau cultural. Cel mai opac dintre textele moderniste, Tender Buttons a avut si cel mai voluminos si variat raspuns al modernismului.
