Descripci�n

A 1974 first impression of the first UK paperback edition. Originally published as a hardback in the UK in 1968 by Abelard-Schumann, and republished in 1974 by Eyre Methuen. ***Front cover illustration by Kathy Wyatt. ***A very good copy in illustrated card wrappers. Paper not really browned. No foxing. Edges slightly creased and rubbed. Back cover marked [see scans]. Spine tight with no reading creases. ***218 pages plus a two page publisher's advert at the rear. 182mm x 111mm. ***'Meet Walter Faber, Swiss technologist, employed on United Nations work in underdeveloped countries. A matter-of-fact man. Faber finds people tiring, regards feelings as 'fatigue phenomena', despises novels (and dreams). He loves machinery and statistics. On a flight to Central America Faber begins to act irrationally, as providence and his past catch up with him. He meets, as they travel back to Europe, the daughter he never knew he had. And as the lovers cross France and Italy, Faber, in mounting agony, blindly wrecks his career, his daughter and finally himself.' [Quote from rear cover]***'Max Rudolf Frisch (15 May 1911 � 4 April 1991) was a Swiss playwright and novelist. Frisch's works focused on problems of identity, individuality, responsibility, morality, and political commitment. His use of irony is a significant feature of his post-war publications. Frisch was one of the founders of Gruppe Olten. He was awarded the Neustadt International Prize for Literature in 1986.' Quote from Wiki. ***First impression of the first UK paperback edition in nice condition. ***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.
