One of the most important novels by John Dos Passos. It is one of the 100 main books of the 20th century according to the newspaper Le Monde.A novel that reflects the authentic polyphony of New York in the 20s of the last century.Dos Passos shows a picture of the life of a big city, or rather, one of its neighborhoods — Manhattan. Miniatures from urban life, fragments of someone's thoughts, overheard phrases, the incessant noise of the crowd on the streets make up a sophisticated mosaic of seemingly disparate episodes and dialogues. To convey the chaos of life, the author uses experimental techniques inspired by James Joyce's Ulysses and films by Soviet director Sergei Eisenstein.
