Sobre este artículo
New York, New York, U.S.A. : Little, Brown and Company, 2018. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. New/New. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. THE BALCONY follows the inhabitants of a single estate-over the course of several generations, from the Belle Epoque to the present day, introducing us to a fascinating cast of characters. A young American au pair develops a crush on her brilliant employer. An ex-courtesan shocks the servants, a Jewish couple in hiding from the Gestapo attract the curiosity of the neighbors, and a housewife begins an affair while renovating her downstairs. Rich and poor, young and old, powerful and persecuted, all of these people are seeking something: meaning, love, a new beginning, or merely survival. Throughout, cross-generational connections and troubled legacies haunt the same spaces, so that the rose garden, the forest pond, and the balcony off the manor's third floor bedroom become silent witnesses to a century of human drama. This is Jane Delurs debut novel She haspreviously received a PEN/O. Henry Prize, the F. Scott Fitzgerald Story Award for her short fiction, a VCCA fellowship, and grants from the Maryland State Arts Council. New, unread, first edition, first printing, in new, mylar-protected dust cover.
