Look Homeward, Angel: A Story of the Buried Life
Thomas Wolfe
A young Eugene Gant wrestles free from the suffocating grip of Altamont, a fictional North Carolina town, in this stirring journey of self-discovery. Look Homeward, Angel, a sprawling debut novel by Thomas Wolfe, is a profound coming-of-age narrative echoing the author's experiences. It vividly portrays the early twentieth-century American South and the relentless quest of a young man for intellectual fulfillment and adventure beyond his confined small-town existence. This bildungsroman overflows with Wolfe's signature lyricism and in-depth exploration of human emotions in a raw, unforgettable portrait of ambition, family, and the intoxicating call of a world beyond the horizon. A true American classic that continues to resonate with readers today.
