Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Very minor shelfwear to book. Very faint staining to small area of textblock. Creasing and a bit of edgewear along top edge of DJ. ; A book about love as seen by the ancients, Eros is Anne Carson's exploration of the concept of "eros" in both…classical philosophy and literature. Beginning with: "It was Sappho who first called eros 'bittersweet. ' No one who has been in love disputes her. What does the word mean?", Carson examines her subject from numerous points of view and styles, transcending the constraints of the scholarly exercise for an evocative and lyrical meditation in the tradition of William Carlos William's Spring and All and William H. Gass's On Being Blue. Epigrammatic, witty, ironic, and endlessly interesting, Eros is an utterly original book by an author whose acclaim has been steadily growing. ; 8.75 x 0.75 x 5.75 Inches; 189 pages.
