Product Info Reviews

Description:

There are some big wheels at work here. Mark Twain, William Saroyan, W. Somerset Maugham, Ernest Hemingway, P. D. James, Iris Murdoch, Samuel Beckett, Vladimir Nabokov, and Dylan Thomas are among the many who spun the bicycle into their work, sometimes as a mere prop for conveyance, sometimes as an object of adoration, and sometimes just because its tires were there to kick. This sprightly and comprehensive anthology of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry is filled with so many delights and surprises that it manages to create a literary traffic jam.
