Prepare for Saints: Gertrude Stein, Virgil Thomson, and the Mainstreaming of American Modernism
Steven Watson
Perhaps the oddest and most influential collaboration in the history of American modernism was hatched in 1926, when a young Virgil Thomson knocked on Gertrude Stein's door in Paris. Eight years later, their opera "Four Saints in Three Acts" became a sensation. This is an account of how that revolutionary opera was born.
