Sobre este artículo
New York: Grove Press, 1996. First edition. Cloth. Fine/Fine. 7.5" by 5.5". Not Stated. A flawless, first edition copy of this novella by Robert Coover, in the original dust wrapper and signed by the author. In this novella, American author Robert Coover retells the classic story of 'Sleeping Beauty' with a post-modernist twist. Known for his innovative writing style, Coover grapples with themes of timelessness, human desire, and dreams in this short story. Robert Coover is an American novelist and short story writer, as well as a Professor Emeritus at Brown University. His writing is often categorised as post-modernist, fabulation, or metafiction. This copy is in its original dust wrapper and is signed by the author to the title page.This copy came from the library at Julians Park, Hertfordshire, the previous home of Audrey Pleydell-Bouverie (1902-1968). She was an English socialite and through her mother was the illegitimate granddaughter of King Edward VII. In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, excellent, with no discernible shelf wear. Unclipped dust wrapper is lovely and bright. Author's signature to the title page. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright and clean. Fine
