Sobre este artículo
Tight, square spine. Former owner name and seller sticker to front flyleaf, but interior is else clean and unmarked. Only very light shelf-wear to the book. Jacket has some edge-wear and a few small chips. Barnes drafted this roman à clef in the summer of 1932 during a stay at Peggy Guggenheim's Devonshire manor, using the working title, Bow Down, as she fictionalized the exploits of her real-life bohemian compatriots. Later that year she would travel to Morocco with Charles Henri Ford, who helped her type an early version of the manuscript. This beautiful New Classics Series edition (NC 11) features olive-colored full buckram boards, a jacket by quintessential mid-century modernist Alvin Lustig, and an intro by T. S. Eliot, who, as an editor at Faber and Faber, helped the book see publication. 170 pp. Featured Rare & Collectible.
Sinopsis
Nightwood is a 1936 novel by Djuna Barnes first published in London by Faber and Faber. An edition published in the United States in 1937 by Harcourt, Brace included an introduction by T. S. Eliot.. Author Charles Henri Ford typed an early version of the manuscript for Barnes during the summer of 1932, and it took Barnes several years to find a publisher. Nightwood is one of the first lesbian novels (or, for that matter, homosexual novels) to be published.
