AUTHOR
SUMMARY
First published in the dark days immediately before World War II,Capital Cityis Mari Sandoz's angriest and most political novel. Like many important American novels of the 1930s--John Steinbeck'sThe Grapes of Wrath, John Conroy'sThe Disinherited, Robert Cantwell'sLand of Plenty--Capital Citydepicts the troubles and responses of working people trapped in the Great Depression. It is a unique portrayal of the depression in the Great Plains, and a study of the forces that bitterly contended for wealth and power. Sandoz researched the daily life and behind-the-scenes operations of several state capitals in the thirties before drawing them together in this novel, part allegory, part indictment, part warning. Famous for her passionate writing, Sandoz gaveCapital Citythe full measure of ferocity and rage.Sandoz, Mari is the author of 'Capital City' with ISBN 9780803291263 and ISBN 0803291264.
