Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. First published in 1909, Les Mains jointes was the collection of poetry that launched the long career of Nobel Prize-winning author Francois Mauriac (1885-1970). This edition will make available a significant text that has been out of print for several decades. The book, edited by an acknowledged Mauriac specialist, will include an Introduction covering the composition and critical reception of the poems; an assessment of Mauriac's later dismissal of his early verse; and an examination of Mauriac's evolution as a poet. This will be followed by the text of the poems, and critical notes. Paul Cooke makes use for the first time of Mauriac's cahiers de jeunesse. Les Mains jointes (1909) was the collection of poetry that launched the long career of Nobel Prize-winning author Francois Mauriac (1885-1970). This critical edition provides the first ever overview of the volume's complex textual history (spanning four decades). Drawing on Mauriac's unpublished cahiers de jeunesse, Paul Cooke challenges the author's claim that the majority of the poems in the collection were written while he was still at school. A selection of additional poems published between 1905 and 1923 (some of which have remained hidden for nearly a century) allows the reader to situate Les Mains jointes in relation to Mauriac's wider verse output. In his Introduction, Cooke both explores the genesis and history of Les Mains jointes and offers some analysis of Mauriac's style as a poet.
