🌊 "Make your mistakes, take your chances, look silly, but keep on going." 🌊

Thomas Wolfe's Of Time and the River is a monumental work of American literature—a sweeping, lyrical, and deeply human novel that captures the restless energy of youth, the ache of ambition, and the passage of time.

Serving as the sequel to Look Homeward, Angel, this semi-autobiographical epic continues the story of Eugene Gant, a young man leaving his Southern hometown to pursue knowledge, love, and fulfillment in the wider world. From Harvard to New York City, Wolfe paints a vivid portrait of America in the early 20th century—its dreams, struggles, and contradictions—through prose that surges with passion and poetry.

Through Eugene's journey, Wolfe explores themes of identity, loneliness, and the longing to belong, crafting a work that is both intensely personal and universally resonant. His sentences flow like music, his imagery bursts with life, and his vision of America is both grand and intimate.

A meditation on time, memory, and the eternal desire to find one's place in the world, Of Time and the River remains a cornerstone of 20th-century literature—a novel that captures the wild beauty and heartbreak of human existence.

👉 Click Buy Now to experience Thomas Wolfe's Of Time and the River—a soaring literary masterpiece of youth, longing, and the ceaseless flow of life.
