Item description from seller

14.5 cm x 21 cm. 297 pages. Original Hardcover with original dustjacket in protective collector's mylar. [Jacket Design signed T.L.] Very good+ condition with only minor signs of external wear to dustjacket. Interior bright and clean.

He was a socialist throughout his life and during the second world war moved to the Soviet Union, and afterwards to Dresden in East Germany. (Wikipedia) After finishing he worked as a teacher in a Grundtvigian folk school until he became tubercular and went to Spain and Italy to convalesce. Thereafter he concentrated on writing. On his stay in Spain he wrote Soldage/ Days in the Sun. Nexø's first novels are in the decadent, pessimistic manner common around the turn of the century. His mature authorship began with the four-volume Pelle the Conqueror (1906-1910), and from this time on Nexø devoted his writing to the awakening proletariat, the existence of which had gone virtually unnoticed in Danish literature. The title figure of Nexø's other masterpiece, the five-volume Ditte, Child of Man (1917-1921), is Pelle's female counterpart, who symbolizes the situation of the proletarian woman. Today Nexø is acknowledged as one of Denmark's finest realistic storytellers, the only modern Danish writer who has an undisputed place in world literature. (Encyclopedia).…
