Sherwood Anderson (1876-1941), a brilliant short story writer, a recognized classic of American literature, grew up in a small town in the Midwest in a poor family. He was a soldier, a factory Manager, a publisher, an editor. Literary fame brought him a series of stories "Winesburg, Ohio" (1919) about the life of the American province of the early XX century. There is no General storyline, but many characters move from story to story, and one-George Willard-goes through almost all the stories in the collection. In the fates of "ridiculous people", as the author calls his characters, in their unusual characters reflected the understanding of human nature and the whole life experience of the writer. Anderson's work had a huge impact on the development of American literature, on the formation of such masters as Hemingway, Faulkner, Steinbeck.
