Overall, a Very Good copy in a like, unclipped dust jacket, which has mild bumps to the spine ends and cover corners, rubbing with light smudging to the covers, and a 2.5" creased tear to the head of the back. The jacket is wrapped in Mylar. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 212251

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 312 pages. Published in 1976. The author's novel in late-career. One of Alejo Carpentier's finest achievements. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Alejo Carpentier's "El Recurso del Metodo" in a felicitous English translation. Erudite, labyrinthine, and opaque, formally mirroring as such its ostensible subject: The mind and fate of a paranoid and ruthless Head of State. He "survives, suppressing all dissent, confiscating all RED literature (including 'Le Rouge et le Noir' and 'The Scarlet Letter'), facing down in his Presidential quarters the most extreme of the revolutionaries, the Student. He is in absolute control of his (and his nation's) fate until the people rebel and decide otherwise" (Publisher's blurb). And so the by-now-familiar story goes, rendered inimitably by Alejo Carpentier, framing it in Rene Descrates' seminal philosophical text, "Discourse On Method". The Dictator is the quintessential subject of Latin-American literature. Carpentier's novel has influenced every major writer, not just Gabriel Garcia Marquez ("The Autumn of The Patriarch") as well as Mario Vargas Llosa ("The Feast of The Goat" and as recently as 2021, "Harsh Times"), ALL of whom are obsessed, inescapably and maniacally, with the figure of the Dear Leader, with every nation-state's corrupt Founding Father. The obsession isn't quite the same with its North American neighbor, where paranoia of shenanigan, abuse, and unlimited power nevertheless reigns, albeit in an almost resigned and exasperated manner. An absolute "must-have" title for Alejo Carpentier collectors. This title is a great book. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy. ISBN 0394499093. no. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 23371
