Sobre este artículo
196pp. Library binding. Beautiful illustrations by Nadejen. Foxing on some pages. This 1925 first edition of "Porgy" from the Madison High School library of Madison, Florida, was purchased in the adjacent city of Greenville, the childhood home of Ray Charles. Book was the basis of Gershwin's 1935 opera "Porgy & Bess." Dog-eared by many student readers and well-read and completely legible and intact. Typical school library stamps, includes checkout card that ends circa 1967; removed from circulation most likely because of extensive use of the N-word by book characters, including black characters. An interesting copy with a deep South connection.
Sinopsis
Porgy is a novel written by American author DuBose Heyward in 1925, as well as a play Dorothy Heyward helped him to write which debuted in 1927. Even before the play had been fully written, Heyward was in discussions with George Gershwin for an operatic version of his novel, which debuted in 1935 as Porgy and Bess (renamed to distinguish it from the play).
