Sobre este artículo
New York, NY: Doubleday Doran, 1928. First American edition. Hardcover. Good-/Missing. Garden City New York: Doubleday Doran and Company, 1928. First American Edition. Hardcover. Good minus. No Jacket. Red cloth over boards. Paper label on the spine is sunned and rubbed. Closed tear and fraying at head. Else good minus, with boards and edges lightly rubbed. Top edge tinted red. Bookplate. This story of 1920s intellectual life is inspired by classical music, employing a large cast of characters who are compared to instruments in an orchestra, each playing his separate portion of the larger piece. These characters are based on artists, politicians, and socialites of the time including D. H. Lawrence, Katherine Mansfield, Sir Oswald Mosley, Nancy Cunard, and John Middleton Murray. (Philip Quarles, Huxleyâ_x0080__x0099_s alter ego in the novel, acts as the readerâ_x0080__x0099_s guide, speculating upon the actions of the other characters.) The novelâ_x0080__x0099_s title, Point Counter Point, is a reference to the flow of arguments in a debate, and of music.
