What John Dos Passos’s ‘1919’ (And The Rest Of The ‘U.S.A.’ Trilogy) Got Right About 2019

Power Couple: A Far Cry Meets Blue Heron
Beverly Sills and Carol Burnett. Gregory Hines and Mikhail Baryshnikov. Yo-Yo Ma and Bobby McFerrin. …Or Rosa Passos. …Or Lil’ Buck. For that matter, lamb and mint jelly. Prosciutto e melone.

Dorothy Parker will be getting a mention (who would dare leave her out?), poet John Stammers will be talking about punctuation's enemy, ee cummings, while another poet, Oli Hazzard, will discuss the great modernist Wallace Stevens. In a talk on the American city, academic Fiona Anderson will look at the writing of Hart Crane and – of course – John Dos Passos.That all sounds great – although, inevitably, is as notable for what it leaves out as what it includes.
