A Ballad of Love

Descripción

"A novel whose subject is the multifarious forms of human yearning. Its story deals with a particular love, that of Henry for Stella; with the varieties of love; with the nature of love; and finally and most importantly, with love for life itself. Two parallel themes run through the book: lust and exile. .Gradually there emerges a teeming portrait of two continents during the years before World War II, suffused with the colour and charm and menace-haunted gaiety of a recent, vanished era." --- 1st English Edition. Copyright, Author 1960. --- Original blue papered boards, lettered gilt on spine (20.1 cm height). Illustrated dustwrapper, slightly chipped head and lower, price-clipped, now protected. Pp. 256.
