A collection of writings by Gertrude Stein written between 1932 and her death in 1946.

Nineteen plays by Gertrude Stein.

"Gertrude Stein wanted Ida to be known in two ways: as a novel about a woman in the age of celebrity culture and as a text with its own story to tell. With the publication of this workshop edition of Ida, we have the novel exactly as it was published in 1941, and we also have the full record of its creation. Logan Esdale offers informative critical commentary and judiciously selected archival materials to illuminate Stein's experience of authorship...

The stories of three young ordinary working class women are portrayed.

Stein's innovative writing emphasizes the sounds and rhythms rather than the sense of words. By departing from conventional meaning, grammar and syntax, she attempted to capture "moments of consciousness," independent of time and memory.
