Sobre este artículo
New York: Scribner, 2004. Paperback. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7?" - 9?" tall. Trade Paperback in Near Fine Condition. Remainder Mk on lower edge. Clean, unmarked tight and solid book, no edgewear, pages clean and unmarked, binding tight, solid and square. National Book Award Finalist. Faced with the sale of the century-old family house on Cape Cod where he had spent 42 summers, George Howe Colt returned for one last stay with his wife and children. This book is a tribute to this eleven bedroom jumble of gables, bays, dormers and the weddings, divorces, deaths, anniversaries, birthdays, breakdowns, and love affairs for five generations. It is a cherished reminder of summer's pleasures and also a study of class, a meditation on the privileges and burdens of the past and a powerful symbol of a vanishing way of life. 327 pages. 5.5 x 8.5 inches. 2004. Scribner, New York.
