(Wiki) ***Part I. Lucienne's Story; Part II. The Body's Rapture; Part III Love's Questing'. ***'If this remarkable book, which has sold over 5,000 copies in France, is to be regarded as the French "Lady Chatterley's Lover", it is with this difference: the turgid romanticism of Lawrence's masterpiece gives place here to writing limpid as a stream, to a sobriety of thought and feeling in every way worthy of the loftiest intelligence, and to an unflinching scrutiny of the deepest sources of our being. ***Part I may be regarded as an Annunciation. Lucienne meets Pierre. The man and the woman are revealed in a condition of extremed psychological tension, vibrating to the presage of the cardinal moment in their lives, through which they are about to live. ***Part II describes the marriage. it is the word made flesh - the flesh by which the spirit lives. In the words of a well-known critic: "Beautiful in its sometimes breath-taking intimacy and in its style; notable and pure despite that intimacy." ***Part III becomes the most affecting, the most original and surprising part of the book. It is Psyche's questing, the yearning of the spirit to re-establish the links of the flesh. And through the psychic they at last find new vitality, new roots, new hope for the future in the regions of the spirit.' ***'M. Romain's genius has never flown higher than in this great work. Here the master of the Unanimiste school triumphantly reconciles every manifestation of both body and soul.' (Quote and review quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***A beautifully produced true first edition in English, limited to 1,000 copies - very hard to find now in the original dustwrapper, especially so with the original publisher's flyer. ***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.

The narrator, unmarried and friendless, books a room in a Paris boarding house. By chance he finds a hole in his wall, through which he can see the adjoining room and its inhabitants. From the other side, he witnesses lesbianism, adultery, incest, thievery, vicious proselytizing and death, musing to the reader on the philosophical implications of the events he witnesses. His voyeurism eventually convinces him to quit his room and find a fulfilling life of his own, but as he attempts to leave he is crippled with backache and blindness. "Hell" was notably popular and widely discussed in France, selling more than a hundred thousand copies in 1917 alone. Colin Wilson gave considerable attention to Barbusse's novel in his influential work "The Outsider". "L'Enfer" has been translated into English several times, first as "The Inferno" by Edward J. O'Brien for Boni and Liveright in 1918 in a heavily abridged form, then again as "Inferno" by John Rodker for Joiner & Steele in 1932, and then in full as "Hell" by Robert Baldick for Chapman and Hall in 1966.' (Wiki) ***Henri Barbusse (May 17, 1873 - August 30, 1935) was a French novelist and a member of the French Communist Party. He was a lifelong friend of Albert Einstein. Barbusse first came to fame with the publication of his novel "Le Feu" (translated by William Fitzwater Wray as Under Fire) in 1916, which was based on his experiences during World War I. By this time, Barbusse had become a pacifist, and his writing demonstrated his growing hatred of militarism. "Le Feu" drew criticism at the time for its harsh naturalism, but won the Prix Goncourt. ***A rare hardback first edition of Henri Barbusse's classic work "Inferno", in only fair condition, so a good reading copy. ***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.***.
