Solon, Israel

Israel Solon was an American writer of fiction and critical prose and a follower of the teachings of G.I. Gurdjieff.

In the 1910s and 1920s, Solon was part of a literary and artistic community that included Margaret Anderson, Jane Heap, William Carlos Williams, Djuna Barnes, and other New York avant-garde figures. Solon contributed fiction and prose to modernist avant-garde magazines such as Broom (1922) and Double Dealer (1921), but most prominently to Margaret Anderson’s Little Review (1917-1919).
