About this text

Thomas Wolfe († 1938): public-domain work. The text is that of la transcription de Project Gutenberg Australia, collationnée par Erostrate avec deux fac-similés Scribner (Look Homeward, Angel: A Story of the Buried Life, by Thomas Wolfe, New York, Charles Scribner's Sons, 1929). Erostrate has not changed a single word: only the layout and the division into pages are ours.
