Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. First American edition, 1st printing. 189pp. Originally published in Great Britain in 1982 by London Magazine Editions. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Near Fine condition (erstwhile remainder has markings on tail edge, o/w unmarked, Very Good jacket w/repaired front tear, o/w intact). "From the title story, in which a young boy escapes his parents' manipulation as they struggle to be free of each other, to 'The Watch,' a fantastic tale in which Time meets Destiny and loses, these eleven stories reveal the range and depth of a born storyteller. With a lively combination of wit, pathos, and intelligence, Swift turns a piercing eye to the facades of modern life and family and pulls them down, exposing the truths hidden behind them. He writes movingly of the enclosed worlds in which we confine our lives, of the hotel rooms and marriage beds of claustrophobic relationships, of the ghosts of the past which hold the present and future hostage. But while these stories dramatize the confinements of our lives, they also present hopeful images of escape--and redemption--and the liberation of the act of storytelling itself. In their inventiveness, their depth and diversity, the stories in this collection give eloquent testimony to Graham Swift's uncommon talent." [jacket copy] "Swift is an artist doing almost everything right."--Wall Street Journal. "Swift proves throughout this ambitious collection that he is a master of his language and the construction of provocative situations."--Houston Chronicle. Near Fine pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in an intact VG jacket.
