Founder of the Left Bank bookstore Shakespeare and Company and the first publisher of James Joyce's Ulysses, Sylvia Beach had a legendary facility for nurturing literary talent. In this first collection of her letters, we witness Beach's day-to-day dealings as bookseller and publisher to expatriate Paris. Friends and clients include Ernest Hemingway, Gertrude Stein, H. D., Ezra Pound, Janet Flanner, William Carlos Williams, F. Scott Fitzgerald, James Joyce, and Richard Wright. As librarian, publicist, publisher, and translator, Beach carved out a unique space for herself in English and French letters. This collection reveals Beach's charm and resourcefulness, sharing her negotiations with Marianne Moore to place Joyce's work in The Dial; her battle to curb the piracy of Ulysses in the United States; her struggle to keep Shakespeare and Company afloat during the Depression; and her complicated affair with the French bookstore owner Adrienne Monnier. These letters also recount Beach's childhood in New Jersey; her work in Serbia with the American Red Cross; her internment in a German prison camp; and her friendship with a new generation of expatriates in the 1950s and 1960s. Beach was the consummate American in Paris and a tireless champion of the avant-garde. Her warmth and wit made the Rue de l'Od on the heart of modernist Paris.Binding Type: Paperback

Five star all the way around!
I found that the dimensions on this cabinet were a lot bigger than most and most affordable… I can also say that this gives the perfect rustic, modern farmhouse look. Definitely fits a lot more than I expected. This products is very sturdy, it is also wide enough to be able to fit some decor on top, cute little towel bar on it as well. I put this above my toilet and was unsure how it would look due to the fact it had a towel holder, but I absolutely love it. This is a super cute medicine cabinet and not only does it look good, it’s very durable, and fits more medicine than I had expected.

Beautiful sturdy cabinet.
This cabinet is beautiful. Paint was covering all the pieces. I put it together in about an hour by myself. Well made. The gold on black is so sharp. I actually have grey tones in the bath so I took a grey metallic sharpie and ran a line over the gold. Really turned out sharp. They even put black round stickers in the box to cover the screws. Wouldn’t definitely buy again!

Good product with one exception
I was happy with this product. Easy enough to put together. Provides great storage space. Unfortunately one of the screws it came with was not functional so I've been unable to install both door pulls.

Really nice for the price.
Wouldn’t expect the quality for the price in today’s over inflated world. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not made from rare woods and interesting hand made joinery, but as a cheap cabinet to go in my bathroom in my rental apartment to replace the one that delaminated from the bathroom steam, yeah it’s pretty good. It’s made of what looks like mdf but the finish is what got me, it’s like a heavy spray on lacquer or at least feels like it, which shouldn’t delaminate like a veneered panel. My only complaint is the stickers to cover the screw holes, they could be a bit thicker so they don’t get wrinkled.
