Over dit product

Product Information

A timeless work of social satire, set in the 1920s and considered one of the most insightful Modernist depictions of England's working class Living is a book about life in a factory town and the operations of a factory, from the workers on the floor to the boss in his office. The town is Birmingham and the factory is an iron foundry, like the one that Henry Green worked in for some time in the 1920s after dropping out of Oxford, and the stories--courtships, layoffs, getting dinner on the table, going to the pub, death--are all the ordinary stuff of life. The style, however, is pure Henry Green, at once starkly constrained and wildly streaked with the expedients and eccentricities of everyday speech--clich and innuendo, clashing metaphors, slips of tongue--which is to say it is like nothing else. Epic and antic, Living is a book of exact observation and deep tenderness, the work, in Rosamond Lehmann's words, of an "amorous and austere voluptuary" whose work continues to transform the novel.

Reviews
" Living is a book about how people really live: their hopes, but also their compromises and defeats." --Jeremy Treglown   "The best novel of working-class factory life we have." --Walter Allen   " Living introduced a whole school of proletarian literature, and yet remains apart from, and superior to, any of its followers." -- The Times Literary Supplement   "[Green's] terrain here is close to D. H. Lawrence's, with the difference that whereas Lawrence escaped from the working class, Green escaped into it.... His feat of equilibrium was to show lives whose impoverishment he fully recognized as nevertheless sites of comedy, excitement, complex feeling, and beauty." --John Updike   " Living , without underplaying the grimness of their lives...celebrates the clashes between the workers and their manager.... Living often has a surprising force, giving the characters a simple, massive dignity. The density of the novel is formidable. It achieves an epic tone without epic proportions." --Christopher Porterfield, Harper's Magazine   "[Green] seemed to have redrawn the familiar triangle between reader, writer and character, so that you somehow had the impression that you knew his characters better than he himself did.... [CE1] The inner shape of the novel...imitates our experience of living: it promises pattern, then withholds it, insisting on a formless banality; it describes intensity, but as part of a grudgingly accepted monotony; it glimpses poetry, but only from the corner of its eye." --Sebastian Falks, The Guardian   "The best proletarian novel ever written." --Christopher Isherwood   "Green was a novelist of such rarity, such marvelous originality, intuition, sensuality, and finish, that every fragment of his work is precious." --John Updike   " Living ...dealt with workingmen, and it evokes the stark life of the workers with a strenuous, pared-down prose in which all definite articles are omitted.... Living contains some passages of extraordinary beauty." --Brooke Allen, The Guardian  [CE1]edit for sense
