Paperback. Condición: New. An eminently poetic book, Langrishe, Go Down (Higgins's first novel) traces the fall of the Langrishes-a once wealthy, highly respected Irish family-through the lives of their four daughters, especially the youngest, Imogen, whose love affair with a self-centered German scholar resonates throughout the book. Their relationship, told in lush, erotic, and occasionally melancholic prose, comes to represent not only the invasion and decline of this insular family, but the decline of Ireland and Western Europe as a whole in the years preceding World War II. In the tradition of great Irish writing, Higgins's prose is a direct descendent from that of James Joyce and Samuel Beckett, and nowhere else in his mastery of the language as evident as in Langrishe, Go Down, which the Irish Times applauded as "the best Irish novel since At Swim-Two-Birds and the novels of Beckett.".

Aus der Bibliothek des Lyrikers Ernst Günther Bleisch, dem ehemaligen Leiter des Münchner "Seerosenkreises" und des "Wangener Kreises". Mit einer Verlagsbeilage: Hanser Herbst 67. Beiliegend eine Presseinformation ("Elegie von der Vergänglichkeit. Zu dem Roman . von Aidan Higgins) des Verlags mit der Bitte, um eine Besprechung. - Aidan Higgins (born 3 March 1927) is an Irish writer. His upbringing in a landed Catholic family in Celbridge, County Kildare, Ireland, provided material for his first experimental novel, Langrishe, Go Down (1966). The book was awarded the James Tait Black Memorial Prize for fiction and was later adapted as a BBC television film by British playwright Harold Pinter, in association with RTÉ. His 1972 novel, Balcony of Europe was shortlisted for the Booker Prize. Various writings have been collected and reprinted by the Dalkey Archive Press, including his three volume autobiography, A Bestiary, and a collection of fiction, Flotsam and Jetsam, both of which demonstrate his wide erudition and his experience of life and travel in South Africa, Germany and London which gives his writing a largely cosmopolitan feel, utilizing a range of European languages in turns of phrase. . . . wikipedia-Aidan_Higgins.
