Portions of this page Copyright 1995 - 2008 Muze Inc. All rights reserved.
| Synopsis | Dos Passos makes use of vignettes and complex impressionistic episodes to trace the desperate lives of a dozen or more New Yorkers in the 1920s. This is the first of his novels in which he makes a radical stylistic statement as well as a political-social one. MANHATTAN TRANSFER is also a profoundly perceptive portrait of the teeming metropolis in all its complexity.

| | Industry reviews | "A novel of the very first importance; a book which the idle reader can devour yet which the literary analyst must take as possibly inaugurating, at long last, the vast and blazing dawn we have awaited. It may be the foundation of a whole new school of novel-writing."
Book Jacket - Sinclair Lewis
"Living in Manhattan from 1923 to 1925 in the very center of our urban-financial society, [Dos Passos] was ready for a broader view and a broader challenge. The book that emerged from these years was something new, a city-novel studying American social patterns from within and in a vertical cross-section in a single characteristic area."
"John Dos Passos" - John H. Wrenn (01/01/1961)
