Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. We were going out stealing horses. That was what he said, standing at the door to the cabin where I was spending the summer with my father. I was fifteen. It was 1948 and oneof the first days of July. Trond's friend Jon often appeared at his doorstep with an adventure in mind for the two of them. But this morning was different. What began as a joy ride on "borrowed" horses ends with Jon falling into a strange trance of grief. Trond soon learns what befell Jon earlier that day--an incident that marks the beginning of a series of vital losses for both boys. Set in the easternmost region of Norway, Out Stealing Horses by Per Petterson begins with an ending. Sixty-seven-year-old Trond has settled into a rustic cabin in an isolated area to live the rest of his life with a quiet deliberation. A meeting with his only neighbor, however, forces him to reflect on that fateful summer.…

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. First Graywolf edition, 10th printing. Translated by Anne Born. Winner of the 2007 International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "OUT STEALING HORSES is a magical novel that captivates the reader. It records the changing and ever elusive dance of time through the voice of sixty-seven-year-old Trond Sander, as he recalls his young adulthood against the shadowy aftermath of World War II, and the shock of certain life-defining experiences . . . As recollections converge in his mind, like a latticework of remembrance, and a fascinating chain of coincidences unfold, the here and now of contemporary European experience, such as Chechnya, is never far away, an echo chamber within which historical change, at the turn of the new millennium, reverberates. Facing in both directions at the same time, Trond, and the story-telling which fills OUT STEALING HORSES, is a representative figure of our time, sculpted out of the stark and unflinching natural beauty of Norway. OUT STEALING HORSES is a masterful achievement by one of Europe's finest novelists."--Judges' Statement, International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award. "A fairly short novel with a timescale of half a century that seems to have left out nothing important is a bit of a miracle . . . The characters living and dead are equally palpable, another small wonder of OUT STEALING HORSES . . . A gripping account of such originality as to expand the reader's own experience of life."--Thomas McGuane, The New York Times Book Review. "I was completely taken with OUT STEALING HORSES from the first page. I found it powerful yet so quietly done I could hear myself breathe and I finished with an exhalation of awe."--Amy Tan. "Petterson's spare and deliberate prose has astonishing force."--The New Yorker. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a handsome & intact jacket.…
