Summary

Margaret Widdemer's 'I've Married Marjorie' emerges as a captivating exploration of domestic life and the nuanced complexities within interpersonal relationships. Through Widdemer's articulate prose, the reader is drawn into a narrative that not only displays its roots in early 20th-century literature but also portrays the emotional intricacies of marriage and identity. The book's literary style resonates with the transitional period of American literature, capturing elements of both Romantic idealism and the burgeoning realism that characterized the era. Widdemer's work is indicative of a society on the cusp of modernity, as it carefully reproduces the syntax and sentiment of the time while maintaining relevance for contemporary audiences. With DigiCat Publishing's meticulous effort to preserve the book's integrity, the text is afforded the treatment of a true literary staple.
Widdemer, a Pulitzer Prize-sharing poet and novelist, is renowned for weaving her societal observations into her writing. Her background and experiences during the 1910s and 1920s provide a backdrop rich with social commentary on women's roles and expectations. 'I've Married Marjorie' is no exception; as a female writer navigating a primarily masculine literary landscape, Widdemer infuses her narrative with an undercurrent of feminist questioning that would have been both informed by and influential on her contemporary literary scene. The personal underpinnings of Widdemer's life, intertwined with the historical moment of women's evolving societal status, lend authenticity and depth to this profound work.
Recommendation for 'I've Married Marjorie' is strong, particularly for readers who appreciate early 20th-century literature that delves into the profound emotional legislatures of the human condition. Academics and enthusiasts alike will find in Widdemer's narrative a rich vein of cultural and feminist discourse to mine, as well as a moving story that transcends its era to speak to timeless aspects of love and identity. This DigiCat edition offers an opportunity to engage with a seminal work that continues to find resonance with modern literary enthusiasts, illuminating the trajectory of American literature and societal evolution.

    A “creatively captivating and intellectually challenging” existential mystery from the great Polish author—“sly, funny, and . . . lovingly translated” (The New York Times).  Winner of the 1967 International Prize for Literature   Milan Kundera called Witold Gombrowicz “one of the great novelists of our century.” Now his most famous novel, Cosmos, is available in a critically acclaimed translation by the award-winning translator Danuta Borchardt.  Cosmos is a metaphysical noir thriller narrated by Witold, a seedy, pathetic, and witty student, who is charming and appalling by turns. In need of a quiet place to study, Witold and his melancholy friend Fuks head to a boarding house in the mountains. Along the way, they discover a dead bird hanging from a string. Is this a strange but meaningless occurrence or is it the first clue to a sinister mystery?   As the young men become embroiled in the Chekhovian travails of the family that runs the boarding house, Grombrowicz creates a gripping narrative where the reader questions who is sane and who is safe.  “Probably the most important 20th-century novelist most Western readers have never heard of.” —Benjamin Paloff, Words Without Borders

    When doubt is cast on a presidential election, it sets off an “intricate, skillfully spun” tale of intrigue in this near-future political thriller (Publishers Weekly). At the dawn of the twenty-first century, the CIA has been disbanded and a secret society has taken hold of powerful positions across Washington. After a long and contentious campaign, President Bedford Lockwood is celebrating his reelection. But the revelry is cut short when it’s discovered that his over-zealous aides may have tampered with the vote. On the eve of the Inauguration, Lockwood’s rival—the archconservative Franklin Mallory—presents evidence of fraud. When Lockwood refuses to take the oath of office, it sets in motion a series of events that may destroy him, his party, and the Constitution. From this catastrophic crisis, acclaimed author and former Washington journalist Charles McCarry weaves a smart, tense, and eerily prescient political thriller.
