About This Item
New York, NY Simon & Schuster, 1960. Paperback First Edition Thus (1960), Third Printing. Very Good+ in Wraps: shows very light wear to the extremities; a couple of very faint creases to the covers; rubbing to the panels; two tiny soil spots to the top edge of the text block and a hint of foxing to the upper fore-edge; the binding is square and secure; the text is clean. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of underlining, hi-lighting, notations, or marginalia. Free of ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, or labels. A handsome copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing mild wear and minor, unobtrusive cosmetic flaws. Not far from "As New". NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (8 x 5.35 x 0.5 inches). 143 pages. Translated with an Introduction by Kimon Friar. Language: English. Weight: 7 ounces. First Edition Thus (1960), Third Printing. Trade Paperback. A work of a brooding genius whose incisive glacial intellect was perpetually at war with the hot blood of his idealism and passion. A fascinating, fragmented character who climbed the peaks and explored the valleys of human experience, Kazantzakis commits pen to paper here with a spirituality that will haunt the reader, Kazantzakis introduces us to his idea of God: the turbulent, primordial drive for life and change within the universe, striving "transubstantiate matter into spirit".
