30. FLANNER, Janet.

Author

Rosco, Jerry

Abstract

This article focuses on the literary style of Janet Flanner. Flanner achieved rare literary distinction with her Letter From Paris column for the New Yorker. Her concise, intelligent prose captured every aspect of French society and culture with candor and brilliance. In most her works, she did not hesitate to use the audacious long French-style sentence, nor to use antithesis to build purpose and suspense. Her sentences boldly rendered one sure-handed phrase after another, unveiling layers of meaning, then ended with an impact, both sonorously and intellectually.
