Neverending Story Hardcover - 1983

by Michale Ende; Ralph Manheim; Roswitha Quadflieg (Photographer)


About this book

The Neverending Story is a German fantasy novel by Michael Ende, first published in 1979 under the title Die unendliche Geschichte. The standard English translation, by Ralph Manheim, was first published in 1983. The novel was later adapted into several films. The majority of the story takes place in the parallel world of Fantastica (Phantásien in the original German version; referred to as Fantasia in the films), a world being destroyed by the Nothing, which represents and constitutes people's lack of imagination in the real world. The first protagonist is a young warrior, who is asked by the sick Empress to set off and find the cure for their world. The other protagonist is a boy from the real world, a reader of the novel with the same title, for whom the story gradually becomes more and more realistic. -

First Edition Identification

The true first edition was published by K. Thienemanns Verlag in 1979. The first English-language editions were published simultaneously in New York and London by Doubleday and Allen Lane, respectively.

Description:
First edition in English. Octavo. Hardcover with red cloth to boards gilt lettering to spine. Title impressed in decorative shield to front board. Marbled endpapers. Translated by Ralph Mannheim. Illustrated by Roswitha Quadflieg. 396pp. Doubleday (New York), 1983. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Confition: Very Good+. Tiny chip to head of dust jacket at spine. Minor shelfwear. Price-clipped. A truly beautiful volume, text is in green and red throughout with medieval style illuminations to chapter openings.
The classic tale of a boy whose immersion in literature draws him into a land of magic and adventure. A well worn premiss that proves anything but tired in this complex and profound book. As much a journey through the ambiguities of childhood and maturity, good and evil, reality and fantasy as a journey through a world of fantastic creatures. Inspired the classic film.
