Contact seller4-star sellerFirst Edition. H Baer dustjacket art. Author's extremely scarce first book of a man trying to sell tennis racquets in Jugo-Slavia. Hoff, better known by his pseudonym, William Cooper, started an English school of writing that rejected the modernist tradition in favor of naturalism, and set the prototype for later works by Kingsl…ey Amis, John Braine, Anthony Burgess and Malcolm Bradbury. His most famous work published in 1950, Scenes from Provincial Life, was " hailed as seminal by John Braine, Malcolm Bradbury and other writers of the period, who also chose provincial, anarchic but ambitious lower middle class heroes and a low-key realist tone in what some have come to see as a reaction against Modernism. When the novel was republished in 1982, together with two sequels in the series, it was judged by one critic to be more accomplished than anything of the same genre which followed". The author wrote two other novels in the 1930's, Rhea and Lisa, both as difficult to find as this title. Near Fine in Very Good dustjacket with some shallow loss at spine ends and few flap corners, some mild soiling to spine.
