Reseña del libro "Bret Harte: Opening the American Literary West (Oklahoma Western Biographies) (en Inglés)"
Bret Harte was the best known and highest paid writer in America in the early 1870s, yet his vexed attempts to earn a living by his pen led to the failure of his marriage and, in 1878, his departure for Europe. Gary Scharnhorst’s biography of Harte traces the growing commercial appeal of western fiction and drama on both sides of the Atlantic during the Gilded Age, a development in which Harte played a crucial role. Harte’s pioneering use of California local color in such stories as “The Outcasts of Poker Flat” challenged genteel assumptions about western writing and helped open eastern papers to contributions by Mark Twain and others. The popularity of Bret Harte’s writings was driven largely by a literary market that his western stories helped create. In this biography, Scharnhorst documents Harte’s personal relationships and, in addition, his negotiations with various publishers, agents, and theatrical producers as he exploited popular interest in the American West. Gary Scharnhorst is Professor of English at the University of New Mexico and author of Owen Wister and the West, also published by the University of Oklahoma Press.
