9 jul 2012 año - NEW YORK TIMES This Land Was His Land ESSAY By Douglas Brinkley and Johnny Depp

Descripción:

New York Times essay

In a New York Times essay entitled "This Land Was His Land: Woody Guthrie's Dust Bowl
Novel," Brinkley and Depp explain that Guthrie's House of Earth "was written as a direct response to the Dust Bowl." The novel reveals that the great musician was also "a
brilliant and distinctive prose stylist, whose writing is distinguished by a homespun authenticity, deep-seated purpose and remarkable ear for dialect. . .Pitched somewhere between rural realism and proletarian protest, somewhat static in terms of
narrative drive, House of Earth nonetheless offers a searing portrait of the Panhandle
and its marginalized Great Depression residents," they write. "Guthrie successfully mixes Steinbeck's narrative verve with D. H. Lawrence's openness to erotic exploration.
At heart, House of Earth is a meditation about how poor people search for love and meaning in a corrupt world, one in which the rich have lost their moral compasses.
