Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 278 pages. Published in 1999. Retrospective collection of the author's literary essays. One of the greatest books of the 20th century. The first appearance of the title in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published posthumously, Italo Calvino had been planning the book himself before his sudden death in 1985. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Italo Calvino's "Why Read The Classics?" in a felicitous English translation. His literary criticism in its late, and most acute, stage. It is quite a high-wire act: The ultimate "post-modernist" writer defends the enduring importance of the Western Classical canon. "Why read Italo Calvino's book on the classics? Because it passes his own test for what a classic is and its brisk prose can blast your concept of the word clean of the dusty associations that cling to it. Calvino gives fourteen definitions of 'classic', 'a work which constantly generates a pulviscular cloud of critical discourse around it, but which always shakes the particles off', being probably the most ironic. His sharp essays on Conrad, Dickens, Diderot, Flaubert, Ovid, and others constitute an act of self-criticism, a novelist's imaginative autobiography. Italo Calvino distills a writer's essence in a vivid phrase: Money, for instance, serves as 'the motive force of Balzac's narrative, the true test of feeling in Dickens, but in Mark Twain, money is a game of mirrors, causing vertigo over a void' " (Tim Appelo). An absolute "must-have" title for Italo Calvino collectors. This title is itself a classic. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER ITALO CALVINO TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0679415246. no.
