This book is first to historicise and theorise the significance of the early twentieth-century little art colony as a uniquely modern social formation within a global network of modernist activity and production. Alongside a historical overview of the emergence of three critical sites of modernist activity the little art colonies of Carmel, Provincetown and Taos the book offers new critical readings of major authors associated with those places: Robinson Jeffers, Eugene O'Neill and D. H. Lawrence. Geneva M. Gano tracks the radical thought and aesthetic innovation that emerged from these villages, revealing a surprisingly dynamic circulation of persons, objects and ideas between the country and the city and producing modernisms that were cosmopolitan in character yet also site-specific.
Geneva M. Gano is Associate Professor of English and Jesse H. and Mary Gibbs Jones Professor of Southwestern Studies at Texas State University. She is the current past President of the Robinson Jeffers Association.
