Sobre este artículo
First Edition. Second impression. Faber and Faber, London 1965.
Author's highly acclaimed second novel. One set in rural Ireland with a theme of adolescence impelled forward by ambition and sexuality.
Book is very good. Binding tight. Internally clean with no inscriptions or markings. Leaves are age toned as are edges of text block.
DJ is not price clipped. Dust dulled with a little chipping at corners. Now in a protective removable sleeve.
Sinopsis
The Dark, John McGaherns second novel, is set in rural Ireland. The themes that McGahern has made his own are adolescence and a guilty, yet uncontrollable sexuality that is contorted and twisted by both a puritanical state religion and a strange, powerful and ambiguous relationship between son and widower father.Against a background evoked with quiet, undemonstrative mastery, McGahern explores with precision and tenderness a human situation, superficially very ordinary, but inwardly an agony of longing and despair.
