William Alexander

    William Alexander fue un prolífico novelista de amplio rango temático y considerable variedad de estilo, transitando del realismo austero a la comedia social amable. Sus obras, a menudo serializadas en periódicos populares, jugaron con los límites de la publicación literaria al evitar conscientemente el formato de libro. Alexander exploró las duras consecuencias del cambio económico y social para las poblaciones rurales, así como las dinámicas de la política urbana, demostrando un amplio interés en las fuerzas sociales.

    • William Alexander is not just a Francophile, he wants to be French. It's not enough to explore the country, to enjoy the food and revel in the ambiance, he wants to feel French from the inside. Among the things that stand in his way is the fact that he can't actually speak the language. Setting out to conquer the language he loves (but which, amusingly, does not seem to love him back), Alexander devotes himself to learning French, going beyond grammar lessons and memory techniques to delve into the history of the language, the science of linguistics, and the art of translation. Along the way, during his travels in France or following his passion at home, he discovers that not learning a language may be its own reward.
