Sobre este artículo
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Alfred A. Knopf, Inc., 1993. First Edition, First Printing 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. FIRST NIGHTS projects the interwoven lives, the yearnings and dreams of two extraordinary women bound together by the deepest friendship. One is a star--the most beautiful, most mysterious film star of them all, the Scandinavian legend and enigma Anna Asta, the woman who reigned supreme in the 1920s and 1930s, when her pale fire commanded an admiration bordering on worship. The other, unknown to the world, is Anna's housekeeper for two decades, Ivy Cook, whose rich, golden warmth reflects the perpetual summertime of her native Caribbean island. Superbly told, crowded with all manner of fascinating people, rich in the exotic details of two wonderlands--the Caribbean Green Island and Hollywood--FIRST NIGHTS is a novel about private lives and public facades. It is about the unexpected friendships that save us when we have given up hope of being saved, and about how little we know our own lives even as we live them. Fine, in near-fine (flap creases), mylar-protected dust jacket. H
