Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Stated First edition, 2nd printing (B C D E). Translated from the Hungarian by Ivan Sanders. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Near Fine condition. "An architect, in an unnamed East European city, considers his life, his work, and the many-layered history of the city he and his family---architects all---have contributed to molding. [] Brilliant cascades of words illumine scenes of horror, beauty, love, and pain. The city builder's ruthless honesty and intelligence, his awareness of having contributed to a system whose inhumanities he can neither condone nor deny, make him, in a sense, the battleground where idealism and cynical pragmatism are deadlocked in confrontation. Although this battle takes place in another country, facets of it will be eerily familiar to American readers. At once blistering and lyrical, the novel blends realism and surrealism, dream and fact, to build up a merciless indictment of technocracy and bureaucracy, their inevitable dehumanization of all who take part in them." [jacket copy] Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, & an intact (unclipped) Near Fine jacket, all quite presentable.

hardcover. Condition: Very Good in Dustjacket. 1st edition. New York. 1977. Harcourt Brace Jovanovich. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0151180091. Translated from the Hungarian by Ivan Sanders. 184 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Wendell Minor. keywords: Literature Translated Hungary Eastern Europe . FROM THE PUBLISHER - An architect in an unnamed city considers his life, his work, and the many-layered history of the city he and his family - architects all - have contributed to building. In the days after World War II - during which American bombers destroyed much of what his father built - he becomes a Stalinist planner and realizes that the power of the nobility, the wealthy and the bourgeois has been usurped by technocrats. Vanished by those technocrats into the communist underworld of torture and imprisonment, he is eventually released into a post-Stalinist world and becomes the chief builder in a provincial town. Told with wit and elegance by one of Hungary's greatest novelists, The City Builder is one of the most important and impassioned books about the indignities of living in - and contributing to - a cruelly depersonalized society. 'The planner's constricted role as a creator (emerges) as a metaphor for the misdirection and impediments to creativity of bureaucratic society.' - ALA Booklist inventory #5081.
