Danticat, Edwidge.
AFTER THE DANCE: A WALK THROUGH CARNIVAL IN JACMEL, HAITI.
New York City, NY: Crown Publishers, 2002. Hardcover. First Edition/First Printing. 158 pages. As New/As New. The author's highly personal and evocative book on Haiti, her native land. Published in a small and limited print run as a hardcover original only. Part of a handsome new series that includes some of the brightest stars in the literary firmament descending on a particular place that has special significance for them. "Extraordinary, these titles remind us that the essence of a place cannot be found in any guidebook" (Time Out). Edwidge Danticat's lyrical narrative reveals a deeper layer of her homeland and ultimately, of her own spirit. This title is no longer in print as a hardcover. This copy has no flaws, a pristine beauty. A scarce copy thus. Selected by The New Yorker Magazine as one of "Twenty Writers for the 21st Cnetury". One of the finest living American writers. A flawless copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER EDWIDGE DANTICAT TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). ISBN 0609609084. $25.00 |
