Descripción Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. First UK Edition. First impression of the first UK edition with full number-string sequence including the no. "1": 1 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2. This hardcover edition was published simultaneously with a more commonly found paperback edition. The hardcover copies were aimed mainly at public lending libraries, and so are much harder to find now. Translated from the German by Michael Hulse. Illustrated with black and white photographs throughout the text. ***Very good in black cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. The gilt is still nice and bright, having been protected by the dustwrapper. Boards clean and unmarked. Head and tail of the spine slightly creased. There is also a small scuff to the bottom edge of the front board near the spine. Lower corners very slightly creased. Internally, the book is near fine - clean and unmarked. There is just some light creasing to the fore edge of the first few pages where the pages have been turned - otherwise the book feels largely unread. No tears. No foxing. Spine tight. ***In a near fine monochrome illustrated dustwrapper, that is not price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's price of £16.99 on the front flap. Just light wear and rubbing to the edges of the dustwrapper. No chips or tears. No significant creasing. ***217 mm x155 mm. 263 pages. ***Contents: I. Beyle, or Love is a Madness Most Discreet, II. All'estero, III. Dr K. Takes the Waters at Riva, IV. Il ritorno in patria. ***'"Vertigo" is the book in which W. G. Sebald first employed the spell-binding blend of personal narrative, investigation, fiction, history and ravel writing that has since won him international acclaim for the Emigrants and The Rings of Saturn. ***In the first of four linked narratives following the young Stendhal (at that time still Marie Henri Beyle) as he revisits the battlefields of Napoleon's Italian Campaign, Sebald announces his theme: the vertiginous unreliability of memory. In the second and third narratives, the frescoes of Pisanello, the imprisonment of Casanova in Venice, the trials of Franz Kafka in Italy, and the narrator's own uneasy journeyings, develop the theme. In the final movement, motifs sketched in the earlier parts of the book are synthesised into one mesmerising autobiographical quest as Sebald returns to his childhood roots in southern Germany to discover the dizzying otherness of his own past. ***Line by line we are drawn into a symphonic labyrinth from which escape seems impossible, until Sebald introduces his final theme: the delight the creative process takes in blending, transforming and refashioning past experience into a new and consoling whole.' [Quote taken from the back cover] ***First impression of the first UK edition of W. G. Sebald's "Vertigo", published in hardcover - far fewer copies were printed in this format compared with the simultaneous paperback edition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Nº de ref. del artículo: 8059x
