Sobre este item
Dial Press, New York, 1957; First Edition; 8vo, 223 pages; red cloth; white and yellow titles. First book by master story teller Harold Brodkey, a collection of nine short stories: "The State Of Grace," "First Love And Other Sorrows," "The Quarrel," "Sentimental Education," "Laurie Dressing," "Laura," "Trio For Three Gentle Voices," "Piping Down The Valleys Wild," and "The Dark Woman Of The Sonnets." Brodkey, a notoriously obsessive personality, took over 30 years of writing, rewriting, and numerous publisher firings, before agreeing to release his monumental next book, "The Runaway Soul," praised by critic Harold Bloom as "unparalleled in American prose fiction since the death of William Faulkner." Enthusiastic blurbs on the rear dust jacket panel by Frank O’Connor, John Cheever, Mark Schorer, and Nancy Hale — who ranks Brodkey with J. D. Salinger as post war youth’s greatest literary figures. Very Good Plus, clean, crisp, bright, corners sharp, in an unfaded Very Good Plus dustjacket that has some tiny chipping at the top edge of the spine panel and a single 1/4" closed edge tear. Not price clipped. An attractive copy of a scarce book.
