A stunning and elegiac look at a world where imperialism has opened up boundaries, only to close off borders. Powerful and profound, it reveals an author at the height of his powers.

Buchbeschreibung Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First UK Edition. First impression of the first UK edition, with full number-string sequence including the no. "1" on the printer's page: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. ***Very good in turquoise cloth-covered boards, with metallic copper titles to the spine, and with a matching integral reading ribbon. Boards clean and unmarked. Head and tail of spine slightly creased. No bumps. Corners sharp. No reading creases to the spine. Internally also very good with no inscriptions. ***Please note that there are a couple of stains to the pages, affecting p.187/8 & p. 203/4. There is also a light production crease affecting p.151/2 [please see scans]. The cheap paper stock has tanned. No foxing. No tears. Spine tight. ***In a very good illustrated dustwrapper with orange and black titles to the spine. The dustwrapper has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of £16.99. The dustwrapper is complete without any significant faults. Corners just slightly rubbed, with some fading to the spine and the orange titles on the spine. No chips or tears. No creases. Dustwrapper bright. ***242 mm x160 mm. 245 pages plus a Note on the Author and a Note on the Type at the back of the book. ***'"By the Sea" is narrated, in part, by a man named Saleh Omar, who is attempting to enter the United Kingdom on a fake passport. Omar also goes by the pseudonym "Rajab Shaaban Mahmud", an identity he stole to use on his fake passport. The novel is also narrated, in part, by Latif Mahmud, the son of the real Rajab Shaaban Mahmud?a man who turns out to be a scoundrel. Mahmud also travels to Europe, but by a more legitimate route?obtaining a student visa to East Germany and travelling by a circuitous route from there to the UK. Michael Pye, in a review for The New York Times, notes the novel's self-conscious echoes of Herman Melville's short story "Bartleby, the Scrivener". Saleh Omar, the protagonist, quotes Bartleby's mantra "I would prefer not to"; Pye argues that "by invoking Melville, Gurnah opens a little inquest into the nature of pity itself." Critic Sissy Helff argues that "By the Sea" "is a fine example of a confrontation of readers with a highly complex picture of the predicament of refugees in the wake of movement and migration."' [Wiki] ***'Abdulrazak Gurnah FRSL (born 20 Dec 1948) is a novelist and academic who is based in the United Kingdom. He was born in the Sultanate of Zanzibar and moved to the United Kingdom in the 1960s as a refugee during the Zanzibar Revolution. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2021 "for his uncompromising and compassionate penetration of the effects of colonialism and the fates of the refugee in the gulf between cultures and continents". He is Emeritus Professor of English and Post-colonial Literatures at the University of Kent.' [Wiki] ***'Abdulrazak Gurnah's sixth novel is a stunning and elegiac look at a world where imperialism has opened up boundaries only to close off borders. Passionate and profound, it reveals an author at the height of his powers.' ***'Gurnah is a compelling storyteller and "Admiring Silence" exercises a mnemonic hold on the reader.' - Russell Celyn Jones [The Times] Quotes taken from the front flap and the back panel of the dustwrapper respectively.] ***A scarce copy of the first impression of the first UK edition in very good condition. The sixth published novel by Abdulrazak Gurnah, who's novels in first edition have become very hard to find since he became a Nobel Laureate. "By the Sea" was longlisted for the Booker Prize and shortlisted for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize. ***This copy also comes with an additional insert in the form of a Bloomsbury Publishing review sheet with publication date of 21st May 2001. ***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. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 8125x
