2011 Reprint of 1914. 'Tender Buttons' is the best known of Gertrude Stein’s 'hermetic' works. It is a small book separated into three sections - Food, Objects and Rooms each containing prose under subtitles. 'Tender Buttons' is one of the great Modern experiments in verse. Simultaneously considered to be a masterpiece of verbal Cubism, a modernist triumph, a spectacular failure, a collection of confusing gibberish, and an intentional hoax, the book is perhaps more often written about than actually read. Divided into three sections-'Objects,' 'Food,' and 'Rooms'-the book contains a series of descriptions that defy conventional syntax.
