Beschreibung:Summary: A humorous romantic novel set in Venezuela, by the Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Vaiden Trilogy (volume two, entitled The Store, won him the prize). Fombombo was Stribling's third novel, published just a year after Birthright, which was originally serialized in Century magazine, and is considered his first serious effort at a long-form work (The Cruise of the Dry Dock, published in 1917, was his first attempt, but was seen as somewhat derivative). Birthright put Stribling on the map as a writer, and foreshadowed the huge success he would have in the 1930s. Fombombo was the first of three more lighthearted novels written in the 1920s, all focusing on Venezuelan culture and social classes
