Paperback. Zustand: Fine. 95 pages, illustrations (some colour); 30 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. This is the large softcover edition. *** "After starting a career as a bank broker, Paul Gauguin (born 1848) turned to painting only at age twenty-five. After initial successes within the Impressionist circle, he broke with V…incent van Gogh and subsequently, when private difficulties caused him to become restless, embarked on a peripatetic life, wandering first through Europe and finally, in the search for pristine originality and unadulterated nature, to Tahiti. The paintings created from this time to his death in 1903 brought him posthumous fame. In pictures devoid of any attempt at romantically disguising the life style of the primitive island peoples, Gauguin was able to convey the magical effect that both the landscapes and life of the natives - their body language, charm and beauty - had on him. Wearying of his reputation as a South Sea painter, Gauguin finally determined to return to France, but died of syphilis on the Marquis Islands before his departure." - Publisher. Size: 4to.

Age toning. *** "For Edvard Munch (1863-1944), painting was an act of self-liberation. His treatments of fear, desperation, and death still exert a powerf…ul visual and psychological effect on modern viewers. Of all Munch's paintings, The Scream (1893), representing a figure tortured by horror, is the most well-known-and certainly one of the most expressive. The artist reflected his innermost feelings in his work. . Although Edvard Munch cannot be clearly identified with any single movement, he is deemed a pioneer of Expressionism." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Munch's artistic background: Christiania, Paris, Berlin; The frieze of life: A poem of life, love and death; Recognition late in life: Portraits, landscapes and self-portraits; Edvard Munch 1863-1944, a chronology. .

"1": 1 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2 on the printer's page. This paperback edition was published simultaneously with a scarcer hardback edition. Translated from the G…erman by Michael Hulse. Illustrated with black and white photographs throughout the text. ***Very good in monochrome photo-illustrated card covers with integral folding French flaps, with silver titles to the spine and front cover. There are some light creases to the edges, mainly on the back cover, but the covers are clean and only lightly marked. No major creases or tears, and no reading creases to the spine. Corners sharp. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. There is a light abrasion to the bottom of the fore-edge of the page block, and some creasing and marking to the bottom corner of the last few pages (please see scans). No inscriptions. Apart from the aforementioned creasing and marking to the last few pages, the interior pages are clean and bright. No tears. ***210mm x150mm. 263 pages. ***Contents: I. Beyle, or Love is a Madness Most Discreet, II. All'estero, III. Dr K. Takes the Waters at Riva, IV. Il ritorno in patria. ***'"Vertigo" is the book in which W. G. Sebald first employed the spell-binding blend of personal narrative, investigation, fiction, history and ravel writing that has since won him international acclaim for "The Emigrants" and "The Rings of Saturn". ***In the first of four linked narratives following the young Stendhal (at that time still Marie Henri Beyle) as he revisits the battlefields of Napoleon's Italian Campaign, Sebald announces his theme: the vertiginous unreliability of memory. In the second and third narratives, the frescoes of Pisanello, the imprisonment of Casanova in Venice, the trials of Franz Kafka in Italy, and the narrator's own uneasy journeyings, develop the theme. In the final movement, motifs sketched in the earlier parts of the book are synthesised into one mesmerising autobiographical quest as Sebald returns to his childhood roots in southern Germany to discover the dizzying otherness of his own past. ***Line by line we are drawn into a symphonic labyrinth from which escape seems impossible, until Sebald introduces his final theme: the delight the creative process takes in blending, transforming and refashioning past experience into a new and consoling whole.' (Quote taken from the front flap) ***First impression of the first UK edition of W. G. Sebald's "Vertigo", published as a paperback original (simultaneously with a scarcer hardback edition). A good reading copy of the original printing of this Sebald classic. ***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.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 263 pages. Published in 2000. The author's debut novel. One of W. G. Sebald'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 W. G. Sebald's "Vertigo" in Michael Hulse's acclaimed English translation. A "spell-binding blend of personal narrative, investigation, fiction, history, and travel writing". The most celebrated of the four narratives is devoted to Kafka (Stendhal and Casanova also appear). The great German expatriate writer conflated, transformed, and transcended various literary genres to create his one-of-a-kind novels. In addition, Sebald's innovative and brilliant insertion of ambiguous photographs throughout the text, his application of Roland Barthes' "photograph-as-punctuation" mandate, is first deployed here. "So stunning and strange, like a dream you want to last forever" (The New York Times). Sebald was not a prolific author, but each of his four novels is a masterpiece. W. G. Sebald's soaring literary career was abruptly cut short by his violent death in a car accident in 2001, a premature and tragic loss to world literature. An absolute "must-have" title for W. G. Sebald 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 despite its imperfection (a tiny pinch on a bottom board corner, but it's there) is still in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are in multiple 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. (SEE ALSO OTHER W. G. SEBALD TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0811214303. no.
