Sobre este artículo
"Tobacco Road" by Erskine Caldwell. 1932; Grosset & Dunlap; New York. The book comes with its dust jacket and includes a new preface by the author.
TOBACCO ROAD
Set during the Depression in the depleted farmlands surrounding Augusta, Georgia, Tobacco Road was first published in 1932. It is the story of the Lesters, a family of white sharecroppers so destitute that most of their creditors have given up on them. Debased by poverty to an elemental state of ignorance and selfishness, the Lesters are preoccupied by their hunger, sexual longings, and fear that they will someday descend to a lower rung on the social ladder than the black families who live near them.
Condition:
Light stain at right edge of spine onto left edge of front cover; sharp corners. Tight binding. No splits. No loose pages. Pages 25-27 each have a stain; there is a small stain at the bottom corner tips of pages 35-43...otherwise clean pages with no writing or tears. Light soiling to pastedowns and end papers. Light soiling to dust jacket; there is a stain at the bottom edge of the spine (see photo). The book has a light musty odor.
