Sobre este item
Santa Barbara, CA: Black Sparrow Press, 1982. First, signed edition. Condition: Near fine in clear acetate dust jacket as issued by the publisher. A few very light bumps at corners, small mark at bottom corner of a few pages around the middle of the books, could be ink bleed. Acetate dust jacket has slight rubbing. Signed by Bowles and numbered, number 233 of 350 copies.
Synopsis: Set in Fez, Morocco, during that country's 1954 nationalist uprising, The Spider's House is perhaps Paul Bowles' most beautifully subtle novel, richly descriptive of its setting, and uncompromising in its characterizations. Exploring once again the dilemma of the outsider in an alien society, and the gap in understanding between cultures—recurrent themes of Bowles' writings—The Spider's House is dramatic, brutally honest, and shockingly relevant to today's political situation in the Middle East and elsewhere.
