Interpreters is a novel written by Carl Van Vechten and published in 1920. The book follows the story of a group of young artists and intellectuals living in New York City during the early 20th century. The characters in the novel are all struggling to find their place in the world and to make sense of the rapidly changing society around them. The main character, Peter Whiffle, is a young writer who is trying to make a name for himself in the literary world. He is surrounded by a colorful cast of characters, including a flamboyant dancer, a wealthy socialite, and a struggling musician. As they navigate the complexities of love, friendship, and artistic expression, they find themselves drawn into a world of parties, salons, and intellectual debates.Interpreters is a vivid portrayal of the bohemian culture of the time, with its mix of high art and lowbrow entertainment. The novel is also notable for its frank portrayal of sexuality and its exploration of themes such as race, gender, and class. Overall, Interpreters is a fascinating snapshot of a particular moment in American history, and a compelling portrait of a group of young people trying to find their way in a rapidly changing world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
