Translated from the German by Michael Hofmann. The book was first publish…ed in English in the UK in hardcover, in this translation, by Chatto & Windus in 1989. The book was recently reissued in 2022 in this translation by Granta Books. The book was originally published in German by Allert de Lange, Amsterdam as "Die Legende von Heilegen Trimker'. ***Near fine in glossy card illustrated covers, with the original publisher's printed price of £2.99 net on the back cover. The covers are just slightly rubbed and creased at the edges, commensurate with age and handling. Spine tight without any reading creases. Internally also near fine with no inscriptions. Pages clean with no annotations or foxing. The paper stock has tanned with age.

Filmed by Ermanno Olmi as "La Leggende del Santo Bevitore" -- winner of the Palme d'Or at the 1988 Venice Film Festival'. [Quote taken from the back cover] *** Joseph Roth (1894-1939), was an Austrian writer and journalist. He was forced out of his country because of the rise of Nazism. "The Legend of the Holy Drinker" (German: Die Legende vom heiligen Trinker) is a 1939 novella by Austrian writer Joseph Roth, published posthumously by Allert de Lange Verlag in Amsterdam. It tells the story of a homeless alcoholic, Andreas, who wants to return money he has borrowed, but fails because he spends all of his money on alcohol.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 250 pages. Published in 2005. The author's fourth memoir, published posthumously. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a s…mall and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Elias Canetti's "Party im Blitz: Die englischen Jahre" in a felicitous English translation. The British Coda, written in the form of individual sketches, to his stupendous memoir-trilogy: "The Tongue Set Free", "The Torch In My Ear", and "The Play of The Eyes". Bitter and therefore thoroughly riveting, Elias Canetti, a lifelong misanthrope and misogynist (there are subtle nuances between the two hatreds, which are really disappointments in Canetti's case about humanity and women), resented being exiled to a country where no one knew him as the superlative equal of Hermann Broch and Robert Musil let alone as the "sui generis" writer who saw himself as modern German literature's savior-figure. He was not about to let his resentments go unpunished and undocumented, and wrote this memoir in his last years (after he finally won the Nobel Prize and became world-famous) : "He waited half a century to confront these memories, perhaps because 'in order to be truthful, I should have to track down every needless humiliation I was offered in England, and relive it as the torture it was'. Dissects that torture with unrestrained acerbity, recounting the ordeal of being in a new country where not a soul knew his writing. But not one to be ignored, 'the godmonster of Hempstead' (as John Bayley dubbed Canetti) soon knew everyone, and everyone knew him. Enoch Powell, Bertrand Russell, Iris Murdoch, Empson, Wittgenstein, Kokoschka, Kathleen Raine, Henry Moore, Ralph Vaughan Williams: Canetti knew them all, and he mercilessly rakes some of them over the coals" (Publisher's blurb). He especially detested T. S. Eliot, truthfully and unforgettably describing the rabid anti-Semite as a fraud who desperately wanted to be an Englishman because he was otherwise born in St. Louis, Missouri. Eliot wrote poetry so obscure and pretentious that it required footnotes (which Eliot himself helpfully supplied), "thin-lipped, cold-hearted, prematurely old". His hatred of Dame Iris (who worshipped him and dedicated her novel, "The Enchanter", to him) is unfortunate, more heartbreaking proof of Canetti's incurable hatred of women (hatred, as opposed to contempt, is a form of fear). Eliot deservedly aside, why such venom from such a great mind? "When you write down your life, every page should contain something no one has ever heard about" (Elias Canetti). An absolute "must-have" title for Elias Canetti collectors. This title is a great book. This is one of very few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing/First-State DJ (American) still available online and is in fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are in subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1981. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER ELIAS CANETTI TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0811216365. no.

By critical consensus, Markus Werner's masterpiece. Presented in its very first English translation as a "New York Review of Books Classics Original". Advance Uncorrected P…roof. Precedes and should not be confused with the regular trade edition. Published in a tiny one-time-only print run as a softcover original only for the exclusive use of the publisher and editor. The Uncorrected Proof has the same ISBN as the trade edition. It is now rare. Presents, in its earliest-printing format ever, Markus Werner's "Froschnacht" in the definitive English translation by Michael Hofmann, one of the most brilliant translators of European literature of our time. Some of the most beautiful sentences ever written in contemporary German literature, now just as beautifully rendered in English. "This cult classic of Swiss literature is impossible to forget. In a small town in Switzerland, Franz - ex-clergyman, ex-husband, current counselor of locals - is being haunted by his recently deceased father, Klement. In life, Franz was caught cheating on his wife and defrocked, after which Klement never spoke to him again. In death, Klement visits his son in the form of a frog in the throat, choking him, but also giving voice to an old dairy farmer devoted to the old ways, forever railing against his son and the whole modern mess he represents" (Publisher's blurb). "I sit around, I drink, I brood, I pat myself down for flaws, find many, and each evening I say: Starting tomorrow I'm going to get a grip on myself" (Markus Werner). An absolute "must-have" title for Markus Werner collectors. This title is a great book. As far as we know, this is the only copy of the Advance Uncorrected Proof of the First Edition/First Printing available online and is in fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: ALL other copies available online are subsequent printings of the regular trade edition. A rare copy thus. One of the greatest writers of our time. A fine copy. ISBN 1681379120. no.

In the house at 55 Jablonski Strasse, the various occupants are all trying to live under Nazi rule in their own different ways: the nervous Frau Rosenthal, the bullying Hitler-loyalists the Persickes, the retired judge Fromm, and the unassuming working-class couple Otto and Anna Quangel. Then the Quangels receive the devastating news that their beloved son has been killed fighting in France. ***Shocked out of his quiet existence, the usually taciturn factory foreman Otto is provoked into an action that will endanger his life. With his wife's help, he begins to drop hundreds of anonymous postcards attacking Hitler in buildings all over the city. If Otto and Anna are caught, they will be executed for treason. ***As the couple's silent campaign escalates, the cards come to the attention of the ambitious Gestapo inspector Escherich, and a deadly game of cat-and-mouse develops between them. When the petty criminals Kluge and Borkhausen become involved, blackmail, deception, betrayal and murder ensue, gradually tightening the noose around the Quangels' necks.' ***'Hans Fallada's gripping and haunting novel was first published in German in 1947. It is both a dark, fast-paced wartime thriller and a chilling portrayal of a paranoid, brutal society, where the smallest action can have fatal consequences, and love has to survive against the cruellest of odds. Michael Hofmann's powerful new translation brings this extraordinary masterpiece to English readers for the very first time.' ***'The greatest book ever written about the German resistance to the Nazis' - Primo Levi ***'"Alone in Berlin" is one of the most extraordinary and compelling novels ever written about World War II. Ever. Please, do not miss this.' ***'An unrivalled and vivid portrait of life in wartime Berlin.' (Quotes and review quotes taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'Hans Fallada was one of the best-known German writers of the twentieth century. Born in 1893 in Greifswald, north-east Germany, as Rudolf Wilhelm Adolf Ditzen, he took his pen-name from a Brothers Grimm fairytale. His most famous works include the novels "Little Man, What Now?" and "The Drinker". Fallada died in 1947 in Berlin.' ***'Michael Hofmann is the author of several books of poems, a book of criticism, "Behind the Lines", and the translator of many modern and contemporary authors, including Joseph Roth.

In the house at 55 Jablonski Strasse, the various occupants are all trying to live under Nazi rule in their own different ways: the nervous Frau Rosenthal, the bullying Hitler-loyalists the Persickes, the retired judge Fromm, and the unassuming working-class couple Otto and Anna Quangel. Then the Quangels receive the devastating news that their beloved son has been killed fighting in France. ***Shocked out of his quiet existence, the usually taciturn factory foreman Otto is provoked into an action that will endanger his life. With his wife's help, he begins to drop hundreds of anonymous postcards attacking Hitler in buildings all over the city. If Otto and Anna are caught, they will be executed for treason. ***As the couple's silent campaign escalates, the cards come to the attention of the ambitious Gestapo inspector Escherich, and a deadly game of cat-and-mouse develops between them. When the petty criminals Kluge and Borkhausen become involved, blackmail, deception, betrayal and murder ensue, gradually tightening the noose around the Quangels' necks.' ***'Hans Fallada's gripping and haunting novel was first published in German in 1947. It is both a dark, fast-paced wartime thriller and a chilling portrayal of a paranoid, brutal society, where the smallest action can have fatal consequences, and love has to survive against the cruellest of odds. Michael Hofmann's powerful new translation brings this extraordinary masterpiece to English readers for the very first time.' ***'The greatest book ever written about the German resistance to the Nazis' - Primo Levi ***'"Alone in Berlin" is one of the most extraordinary and compelling novels ever written about World War II. Ever. Please, do not miss this.' ***'An unrivalled and vivid portrait of life in wartime Berlin.' (Quotes and review quotes taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'Hans Fallada was one of the best-known German writers of the twentieth century. Born in 1893 in Greifswald, north-east Germany, as Rudolf Wilhelm Adolf Ditzen, he took his pen-name from a Brothers Grimm fairytale. His most famous works include the novels "Little Man, What Now?" and "The Drinker". Fallada died in 1947 in Berlin.' ***'Michael Hofmann is the author of several books of poems, a book of criticism, "Behind the Lines", and the translator of many modern and contemporary authors, including Joseph Roth.
