DESCRIPTION - The Hills Beyond represents the last great literary testament of Thomas Wolfe. Extracted by Wolfe's editor, Edward C. Aswell, from the mass of unpublished writing left behind by the author at his death at the age of thirty - seven, this rich narrative spans over three centuries in tracing the complex destinies of a vital Southern family. Here the reader will find a somewhat different Thomas Wolfe from the author of the early novels: his prose is leaner, sharper; his tone more objective; his vision of humanity fully matured. Every page of this remarkable short novel, however, and of the memorable stories that complete the volume, is unmistakably stamped with Wolfe's eloquent genius. Thomas Wolfe, Mr. Edward C. Aswell observes in his definitive Afterword, 'believed with all his soul that the most that could be expected of a writer, or any artist for that matter, was that he observe life closely and see it as it really is - not just the surface, but the inner realities as well - and then that he depict it in all its lights and shadows just as he sees it, and do it so faithfully, in such exact colors, that even those of us who go from cradle to grave half - blind (which means most of us) cannot fail to see it also.' inventory #29326.…
