Description

London England: Hamish Hamilton. Very Good/No Jacket. 1960. First Edition. Cloth. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall Octavo Hardcover Hardcover. First Edition. The Days Were Too Short. Translated From the French by Rita Barisse. Previous owners name to inside cover. Rolled spine. Sunned spine. Small tear to top edge of pages 41/42. Orange cloth with gilt lettering. This is the first time - not counting a few modest essays that I write in prose. For to my mind, there are three very different kindfs of literary expressions: poetry, which is sung, plays, which are spoken; and prose, which is written. What frightens me is not so much the choice of words or turns of phrases nor the grammatical subtleties - these are within everybody's reach, after all - but rather the novelist's position, and the even more risky one of the writer of memoirs. 342. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. Academic and Scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Educational Reference Literature.) .
