Book Description
Originally published in 1933 by The Macaulay Company, Yesterday's Burdens is the second novel by Robert M. Coates, "Lost Generation" writer and long-time art critic at The New Yorker. Prior to publication, three chapters of the novel appeared in The New Yorker under the title "The Dada City" (1930), and another chapter in The American Caravan, a Yearbook of American Literature (1931). Yesterday's Burdens was first resurrected in 1975 by the Southern Illinois University Press as part of their "Lost American Fiction" series, and included a new afterword by Malcolm Cowley. A paperback version of that edition was published the following year by the Popular Library. The novel has been out of print since. This new edition of Yesterday's Burdens contains Malcolm Cowley's afterword from the 1975 edition as well as a new introduction by Mathilde Roza, associate professor of American Literature and American Studies at Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands, and author of Following Strangers: The Life and Literary Works of Robert M. Coates (University of South Carolina Press, 2011). "Coates composed the book like a collage, employing an experimental writing style that incorporated billboards, advertising slogans, and traffic signs to make immediate and vivid the perceptions and experiences of the characters. In Yesterday's Burdens, Coates's 'Dada' spirit brings to life the cacophonous, visually chaotic and mentally demanding life of New York City." -- Mathilde Roza & Jack Mearns, "Collecting Robert M. Coates," Firsts, The Book Collector's Magazine, October 2007

Book Description
JUST FOR TODAY Have you been trying to live each day carrying yesterday's burdens and tomorrow's worries? Does your life as a Christian seem more like an obstacle course than a walk with Jesus? God doesn't ask us to live all our life at once, that's why he gave us life in 24 hour pieces. There are things we could not possibly do if we thought we had to do them for a life-time, but we are more than able to do them - with God's help - just for today. In JUST FOR TODAY you are invited to take a walk with the Master - Jesus, and find out how you can live for him - one day at a time. Come, discover a different way to live, and life may never be the same again. Shirley Templeman Twells has been involved in Prayer Ministry and in leading a women's Bible study group for many years. She is active in her local church, and her greatest joy is to encourage people to 'delight themselves in the LORD' (Psalm 37:4) and to apply God's Word in their everyday life. Shirley and her husband Andy, live in a small country town in Western Australia. They have three grown children.

Book Description
A memorable period piece, remarkable for its vivid language and thematic structure, "Yesterday" "s Burdens "is an obsessive Story of New York life in the 1930s. Malcolm Cowley, a close personal friend of Robert Coates, has pointed out in his Afterword to this new edition the aptness of this novel to its time. "Yesterday s Burdens "is an informal story of an unconventional young man of the 1930s. The central character, Henderson, typifies the successful young New Yorker, whose life style reflects the restless, seeking, discontented mood of his time. With him, the reader crisscrosses Manhattan, visits speakeasies, crashes parties, and participates in Henderson s sexual activities and his possible suicide (the novel has three endings). Frankly experimental in technique, the novel attempts the universal in its appeal. Readers today no doubt will appreciate the unexpected tenderness and passion with which the author endows his very ordinary characters."
