Sobre este artículo
Boston: Little Brown, 1957. Stated First Edition 8vo size black clothbound hardcover with dust jacket; 385 pages From jacket: "O'Faolain ranks unquestionably among the greatest of the storytellers Ireland has produced. This book represents the finest stories of 30 years of writing. Included are selections from three earlier collections which have become classics in the modern literature of the short story - together with eight (other) stories... At the heart of this collection is O'Faolain's love for the Irish people. It is a clear-sighted love which sees the faults as well as the virtues. The Irish emerge as a restless people - garrulous, romantic, erratic, often given to dramatic gestures and postures, as alert to the tragic as to the comic side of life - in short wholly volatile and wholly lovable." Jacket has edgewear, wear and some minor chipping to top corners and head and heel of spine, small tear to top of jacket spine; sunned spine. Tiny chip to top of book spine. Penciled notation on fep; toned pages with some tanning at inner seams of inside front covers and endpapers and tiny hole at back inner seam. . First. Cloth. Good/Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
