Booth Tarkington
Major works:
In the Arena: Stories of Political Life • Penrod • The Magnificent Ambersons • Alice Adams
“[The Magnificent Ambersons] was a permanent page in the social history of the United States, so admirably conceived and written was the tale of the Ambersons, their house, their fate and the growth of the community in which they were submerged in the end.”
—Van Wyck Brooks
