You can sense editorial experiments and the slow emergence of new literary forms. It reads easily yet rewards sustained attention. Fans of a classic magazine reprint will savour the immediacy; those tracing university publication series will value its documentary quality. For anyone curious about 1920s American literature, the volume is an illuminating primary source.Beyond its pleasures as reading, the volume has clear scholarly and collecting value.
