USA - United States
A masterpiece by American novelist John Dos Passos. Published between 1930 and 1936, it consists of three parts: The 42nd Parallel (1930), 1919 (32), and The Big Money (36), which were compiled into one volume in 1938. Set in the period from the early 20th century to the late 1920s, it is an ambitious work that attempts to capture a complete picture of America by intertwining historical developments with the lives of various characters using experimental methods such as the camera eye, newsreels, and biographies.
