Gertrude Stein

Lifting Belly is a book by Gertrude Stein and Rebecca Mark.

Hope in gates, hope in spoons, hope in doors, hope in tables, no hope in daintiness and determination. Hope in dates. A Cubist masterpiece made up of perfect, glittering fragments, Stein's painterly impressions of 'objects,' 'foods' and 'rooms' are redolent of sex, laughter and the joyous rush of everyday life.
