Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very slight bumping of dust jacket edges. Faint scratches to dust jacket due to shelf wear. Professor Martens' Departure, is written in the classic elegaic style reminiscent of Giuseppe di Lampedusa's The Leopard, and it evokes the complex world of Czarist Russian society at the turn of the century. Few writers could have achieved Jaan Kross' degree of clarity as he puts the ant-hill of human striving under a magnifying glass. Winner of France's Best Foreign Book Award. Seller Inventory # 000387
