Atxaga, Bernardo (Translated by Margaret Jull Costa).
THE LONE MAN.
London, England: Harvill Press, 1996. Hardcover. First Edition. 325 pages. As New/As New. The author's second novel to be translated into English. The first appearance of the title in English. There is no American Edition. The technical mastery of the narrative, the deft realization of even the secondary characters, and the elements of lyricism are enough to convince one that we have here a quite exceptional book and are in very capable hands. The most celebrated Basque writer of our time, Bernardo Atxaga is well-established in Europe, but deserves a much wider readership in the United States. A "must-have" title for collectors of modern Spanish literature. This title has been out-of-print for a very long time. This is one of few copies of the First English-language Edition still available online and has no flaws, a pristine beauty. A very scarce copy thus. The finest living Basque writer. A flawless copy. . ISBN 1860461352. $25.00 |
