Sobre este artículo
New York: Boni & Liveright, 1925 Hard cover, 8vo., pp xiv [4] 526. In publisher's black cloth binding with gold lettering and decoration blocked to spine. CONDITION: Near Fine. Former owner's signature, dated 1926, to ffep.. Some pages unopened. No signs of foxing, very clean. Lacking dust jacket. Small "bubble" to back cover. ** The famous 1759 picaresque novel by Laurence Sterne is a highly readable "autobiography" of an educated man well-versed in Latin authors such as Horace and yet aiming to "chat" with the reader in a colloquial way. Like "Don Quixote", the novel is really much ado about nothing, and it has entertained readers for over 250 years.** Laurence Sterne (1713-1768) was an Anglo-Irish priest and novelist famous for two classic novels, "Tristram Shandy" and "A Sentimental Journey Through France and Italy" (1768). ** Boston publishers, Boni and Liveright, published some of the most important authors of the modernist era, before going bankrupt in 1929. OCLC 973465. . Hard Cover. Near Fine.
