[slight wear to book at spine ends, small company name rubber-stamped at lower corner of half-title page; the jacket shows only mild edgewear, and has a couple of tiny nicks along the top edge]. Crime novel about "a woman of great wealth who returns from a con…centration camp, following World War II, to her young husband and to the daughter she has had by a previous liaison [both of whom] have believed she is dead. They are determined to acquire her fortune." Originally published in France in 1961 (as "Le retour des cendres"), the book was adapted for the 1965 British film of the same name, directed by J. Lee Thompson and starring Ingrid Thulin and Maximilian Schell, and again (with considerable alteration of the plot) for the 2014 German film PHOENIX. (The company name rubber-stamped at the front of the book is the Mirisch Company, one of the firms involved in the production of the 1965 film.). Illustrated by (dj design) Janet Halverson (illustrator).

In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Near Fine dj. First Edition. [very light soiling to top and bottom edges of book covers, spine just a teensy bit turned; the jacket shows minor wear at the upper extremities, a touch of soiling along the front flapfold, and has a long vertical crease in the front flap]. The narrator, Harriet, tells… the story of the disintegration of her relationship with her French boyfriend Claude, and ever-so-much-more, as she determines she "will not suffer in silence as she launches her aggressive and hilarious protest against the forces, male and female, that conspire to control and exploit her." This was the first of only two novels that the author published under her own name; according to the jacket blurb she had "already gained an extraordinary reputation among the cognoscenti as the author of four novels published under the pseudonym Harriet Daimler by Olympia Press in Paris." (These were of an erotic nature, published in the late 1950s; she had also co-authored one additional title.) Something of a feminist classic, I gather, despite (or maybe because of) the narrator being a "messy, self-centered, inconsiderate and loud" person with a "wrong-headed, self-serving vision of the world and the people around her." (It was reprinted in the New York Review of Books Classics series in 2010, which is the source of this description of her character.). Illustrated by (dj design) Janet Halverson (illustrator).
