Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

The author's first book to be published in the UK - reprinted in hardback in 1982 to coincide with Marquez being awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. The second reprint of the first UK edition - published in 1982. The book was first published in the UK in 1970, and reprinted in 1973. Translated from the Spanish by Gregory Rabassa. The 1982 printing was the last to retain the original format and dustwrapper design - published in a darker blue cloth compared with the two earlier printings. ***An unusually near fine copy in blue cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to spine. The boards are clean and unmarked. Head and tail of spine just very slightly creased. Corners sharp. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. Page block edges clean. Internally also near fine with no previous ownership inscriptions - just some light rubbed out pencil marks on the front free endpaper. Interior pages clean. No foxing. No creases or tears. ***In a near fine colour-illustrated dustwrapper, which has been neatly corner price-clipped. The dustwrapper is otherwise complete, with no discernible faults. No creases, chips or tears. Just the lightest of rubbing at the extremities. Unusually, there is none of the fading to the bright colours of the dustwrapper including the spine. Dustwrapper bright and clean. With the "Winner of the 1982 Nobel Prize for Literature" sticker on the front panel. ***225mm x 140mm. 422 pages. ***'"One Hundred Years of Solitude" - was hailed as "a classic on the grandest scale" by one of Latin America's greatest writers. Gabriel García Márquez is a spellbinding storyteller, a masterly weaver of words, themes and the moods of light and shade.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'"One Hundred Years of Solitude" (Spanish: Cien años de soledad) is a landmark 1967 novel by Colombian author Gabriel García Márquez that tells the multi-generational story of the Buendía family, whose patriarch, José Arcadio Buendía, founded the (fictitious) town of Macondo. The novel is often cited as one of the supreme achievements in literature. The magical realist style and thematic substance of One Hundred Years of Solitude established it as an important representative novel of the literary Latin American Boom of the 1960s and 1970s, which was stylistically influenced by Modernism (European and North American) and the Cuban Vanguardia (Avant-Garde) literary movements. Since it was first published in May 1967 in Buenos Aires by Editorial Sudamericana, "One Hundred Years of Solitude" has been translated into 46 languages and sold more than 50 million copies. The novel, considered to be García Márquez's magnum opus, remains widely acclaimed and is recognized as one of the most significant works both in the Hispanic literary canon and in world literature.' (Wiki) ***A beautiful near fine example of the third printing of the first UK edition, complete in the original dustwrapper in fabulous collectable condition. This 1982 printing in hardback, published to coincide with Marquez being awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, is very uncommon. ***We have never handled such a clean copy of this work before. *** Of interest to collectors of Gabriel García Márquez and Latin American literature. ***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.…
