Brossura. Condition: new. Roma, 2020; br., pp. 400, cm 14,5x21,5.(Le Strade). Sono trascorsi sei anni dalla fine della Grande Guerra e Hervey Russell è ancora in lotta contro l'incertezza della sua esistenza, la potenza delle sue ambizioni e l'irrequietezza del suo spirito. Si è ormai conquistata una reputazione dignitosa nella società letteraria londinese, anche se il vero successo è ancora lontano, e si mantiene lavorando per la rivista della volubile e disinvolta Evelyn Lamb. La crisi con il marito è ormai totale, e quella sorta di responsabilità che Hervey sente per lui, il dovere di prendersi cura della parte più debole della coppia, costituisce l'ultimo filo che la tiene legata all'uomo. Ma è un filo che viene irrevocabilmente scosso, pronto a recidersi una volta per tutte, quando Hervey si innamora del cugino Nicholas Roxby, l'unico erede dei cantieri Garton appartenuti alla nonna. Hervey, che nel tempo si è fatta forte come un albero, non intende rinunciare a lui. Nella Londra del 1924, nel frattempo, si muove la varia umanità di individui ai quali la guerra ha inferto definitive menomazioni spirituali e materiali, a cominciare dagli amici di gioventù di Hervey, intrappolati in relazioni sentimentali che nascono minate dall'incapacità maschile di lasciarsi amare al di là di ogni convenzione, oppure alimentate dalle residue energie di una generazione giovane ma già decadente, quella che ha vissuto in prima persona la guerra. Dopo "Company Parade", "Amore a prima vista" è il secondo capitolo della trilogia "Lo specchio nel buio". Libro.

Edge wear, chipping, creasing and loss to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners rubbed with small loss, some browning to back jacket, folds rubbed, some muddy (cat?) paw prints to back endpapers. Not price clipped (10s 6d), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a reasonable copy for its age. 349pp. Margaret Storm Jameson (1891-1986), was a prolific English journalist and author. Much of the action of 'The Black Laurel' takes place in Berlin, 1945. But it is not a novel about Germany. It concerns a group of English people whose duties or interests place them in Berlin during the first summer of the Occupation. They are involved with each other through their position in occupied territory or through their friendships, and by their interest in the fate of one German who has been arrested and condemned. The action moves swiftly between the ambitions and anxieties of a General, the curious intentions of a Very Important Person, the feverish or helpless twistings of Germans trapped by defeat, the education, friendships and loves of young men. As in life, the private conflicts meet and distort the human relations. When Major General Lowerby's oldest and closest friendship gets in the way of his ambitions, which does he choose? When William Gary, for whom human beings have been instruments, tries to turn to a human loyalty and devotion, can he escape the involuntary callousness of his own mind?.
