Sobre este artículo
London England: Black Swan. Sefton Goldberg; mid-thirties, English teacher at Wrottesley Poly in the West Midlands; small, sweaty, lustful, definatly unappreciative of beer, nature and organised games; gnawingly aware of being an urban Jew islanded in a sea of country-loving Anglo Saxons. Obsessed by failure - morbidly, in his own case, gloatingly, in that of his contemporaries - so much so that he plans to write a bestseller on the subject. In the meantime he is uncomfortably aware of advancing years and atrophying achievement: and no amount of lofty rationalisation can disguise the triumph of friends and colleages, not only from Cambridge days but even within the despised walls of the Poly itself, or sweeten the bitter pill of another's success....Slight browning to end pages. Some creases to cover but a good copy.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.) . Very Good. Soft cover. Reprint. 1984.
