Sobre este artículo
London: William Heinemann. 1935. First UK edition, first printing. First UK edition, first printing. Original dark blue cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. A beautiful fine copy, the cloth very clean but with a little ghosting to the spine from the dustwrapper, the contents clean, bright and tight throughout. Complete with the fine original dustwrapper which is ever so lightly rubbed to the extremities. Not price-clipped (7/6net to the front flap and along the edge of the rear flap). An exceptional copy, rare in the dustwrapper. The author's third novel, but the second to be published in England. (Goldstone & Payne A3c.) Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers.
Sinopsis
To a God Unknown is a novel by John Steinbeck, first published in 1933. The book was Steinbeck's second novel (after his unsuccessful Cup of Gold), the title taken from a hymn excerpt of the Rig Veda's Book X. Steinbeck found To a God Unknown extremely difficult to write; taking him roughly five years to complete, the novella proved more time-consuming than either East of Eden or The Grapes of Wrath, Steinbeck's longest novels.
