Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas

Gertrude Stein (February 3, 1874 - July 27, 1946) was an American writer of novels, poetry and plays. She moved to Paris in 1903, making France her home for the remainder of her life. A literary innovator and pioneer of Modernist literature, Stein's work broke with the narrative, linear, and temporal conventions of 19th century. In 1933, Stein published a kind of memoir of her Paris years, The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas, written in the voice of Toklas, her life partner. The book became a literary bestseller and vaulted Stein from the relative obscurity of cult literary figure into the light of mainstream attention.  Tolkas died in poverty at the age of 89. Her name is engraved on the back of Stein's headstone. No photographer credited, undated.
