hardback with dustjacket. Limited edition. Shortlisted for the 2007 Man Booker Prize. An inventive and original novel from this multi-award-winning author.Lloyd Jones' new novel is set mainly in a small village on Bougainville, a country torn apart by civil war. Mathilda attends the school set up by Mr Watts, the only white man on the island. By his own admission he's not much of a teacher and proceeds to educate the children by reading them Great Expectations. Mathilda falls in love with the novel, strongly identifying with Pip. The promise of the next chapter is what keeps her going; Pip's story protects her from the horror of what is happening around her - helicopters menacing the skies above the village and rebel raids on the ground. When the rebels visit the village searching for any remaining men to join their cause, they discover the name Pip written in the sand and instigate a search for him. When Pip can't be found the soldiers destroy the book. Mr Watts then encourages the children to retell the story from their memories. Then when the rebels invade the village, the teacher tells them a story which lasts seven nights, about a boy named Pip, and a convict.Years later, when she has fled the island for Australia, Matilda reaches for a copy of Great Expectations in the school library and realises that Mr Watts was reading them his own version of the text, another 'invention' of the original. Later she pursues Mr Watts's memory to Wellington, New Zealand, and that of Dickens and Pip to London and Gravesend. Jones frames Matilda's story with Pip's story and so creates a Pacific Great Expectations. Mister Pip explores notions of storytelling, and the role of imagination in inventing the self. Lloyd Jones always surprises, never stands still. This is inspired storytelling. Author signature pasted to title page on publisher plate. This is the first hardback printing. This is a new copy of this book but has a couple of minor production faults: The half title verso is split along the spine and there is light wear to the edges of the boards. Autograph sticker on dustjacket front. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 8024139
