Sobre este artículo
Bolinas, CA: Tombouctou Books, 1988. First Edition. First Printing, cloth issue. Octavo (21cm); black cloth, with titles stamped in gilt on spine and front cover; [10],11-86,[6]pp. Upper corners gently tapped (though still sharp), tiny scuff to upper front board edge, else Near Fine. "In these seven new stories Paul Bowles ranges widely in time, in form, and in geographic space - from Massachusetts to Morocco, from 1932 to the 1970s. Portraits and contemporary scenes mix conventional narration with experimental monologues, and the volume concludes with a tale presented as six letters written to a bitter, dying man" (from rear wrapper of the paperback issue).
