I am fond of paintings, furniture, tapestry, houses and flowers and even vegetables and fruit trees. I like a view but I like to sit with my back turned to it. First published in 1933 at the height of Steins popularity and literary prowess, The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas is one of the most avant-garde pieces of non-fiction of the last century. Taking as its form that of autobiography, told through the eyes of her life partner Toklas, Steins book provoked wild debate, and was pored over for its representations of the elite Paris art scene. Charting Toklass early life in San Francisco, life in Paris with Stein and the war years spent in Spain, this is not only a wildly important piece of early LGBTQ+ literature, but, much like Woolfs Orlando, which perhaps inspired it, this is Modernism at its finest.
