Klappentext
American Classics Limited
"An extended love letter to a magical San Francisco."-New York Times Book Review
The novel that spawned the entire Tales of the City series, Armistead Maupin's hugely successful San Francisco saga. This limited edition is a part of the HarperCollins American Classics collection, published in celebration of America's 250th Anniversary.
For almost four decades Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City has blazed its own trail through popular culture-from a groundbreaking newspaper serial to a classic novel, to a television event that entranced millions around the world. The first of nine novels about the denizens of the mythic apartment house at 28 Barbary Lane, Tales is both a sparkling comedy of manners and an indelible portrait of an era that changed forever the way we live.
- A BEAUTIFUL PACKAGE WITH FLAPS: Featuring French flaps and a unique vivid cover design, each book in the collection is published as a deluxe trade paperback that is a part of a stunning series look.
- HARPER COLLINS AMERICAN CLASSICS: This series includes timeless novels, poetry, children's books, and groundbreaking nonfiction that has shaped American thought, literature, and identity across generations.
- AMERICA'S PUBLISHER: Since its founding in 1817, no American publisher has been so entwined in the history of American letters. Our books enrich, challenge, and defined the American spirit.
- **AMERICA 250:**The HarperCollins American Classics arrive in time for America's 250th anniversary celebrations.
