Add to basketNew York Covici Friede 1929 Bound, half-cloth, title on spine, cardboard covers, xvi+214pp., 17x25cm., ills. in b/w., in good condition (covers rubbed, corners slightly bumped, interior and pages clean and in very good condition). A first English translation of Joseph Delteil's debut novel, 'Sur le fleuve Amour', set along the v…ast, enigmatic River Amur. Illustrated with a frontispiece and eight exquisite engravings by Alexandre Alexeieff. Limited to 1,250 numbered copies. This evocative, somewhat erotic narrative captivated the surrealist circle upon its first appearance. A rare and beautifully produced edition, a compelling blend of poetic sensuality and visual artistry. On the River Amour is the first English translation of Joseph Delteil's 1922 novel, originally published in French as Sur le fleuve Amour. Set along the Amur River in the Far East, the story interweaves sensual, poetic descriptions with an air of mystery. The style is part dreamlike, part erotic, and was initially applauded by surrealist authors upon its first publication. Samuel Putnam's English translation vividly captures this richly detailed, lyrical atmosphere, combined with the artistic woodcuts of Alexandre Alexeieff. Joseph Delteil (1894-1978): A French writer and poet, born 20 April 1894 in Villar-en-Val, Aude, France; died 16 April 1978 in Grabels, Hérault, France. His debut novel Sur le fleuve Amour (1922) attracted surrealist admiration (notably from Aragon and Breton). In 1925, his work Jeanne d'Arc won the Prix Femina but led to a rift with the surrealists. After falling seriously ill in 1931, he retreated to the south of France in 1937, living a quiet peasant-writer life until his death.
