Look Homeward, Angel - A Story of the Buried Life - Unabridged
By Thomas Wolfe & Kevin TheisPublisher Description
"Look Homeward, Angel" is the largely autobiographical debut novel from author Thomas Wolfe. Since its publication in 1929, it has been hailed as one of the great American novels and is among the finest pieces of literature to come out of the American South.
The story chronicles the life of Eugene Gant, from his birth through his 19th birthday (when he finally leaves home for good). Raised by a recovering alcoholic father, Eugene is brought up surrounded by literature and poetry and so develops a deep love of books and aspires to become a writer himself. Loosely based on Wolfe's own life, we follow Eugene as he navigates family strife, young love and his own literary ambitions as he grows up, moves out and begins his career as an author.
Long hailed as a seminal piece of Southern literature, "Look Homeward, Angel" was the launching point of Thomas Wolfe's brief yet brilliant career.
