This examination of Stein's notebooks, manuscripts and letters asks new questions and explores new ways of reading Stein. From "An Elucidation" in 1923 to "Lectures in America" in 1934, it examines the process of the making and the remaking of Stein's texts as they move from notepad to manuscript, from an idea to the ultimate refinement of the author's intentions. The work sets each text in the context of Stein's daily life and work, showing how her immediate world enters her writing, to be enlarged upon, deleted, transformed, or combined with other elements of reading or remembering.
