Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Jakov Lind [Jacket illustration] (illustrator). First UK Edition. First impression of the first UK edition. Precedes the US edition which was published by George Braziller, New York a year later. ***Near fine in black cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to spine. Pages slightly browned [cheap paper stock used]. No inscriptions. Pages clean. Spine tight. ***In a near fine colour illustrated dustwrapper, that has not been price-clipped, showing publisher's original price of £9.95 net. No fading. No tears. Dustwrapper bright. ***144 pages. 224mm x 138mm. ***'Jakov Lind's latest novel is a tale of two Jewish brothers born in Poland and raised in England.--- ***The adventures of the two brothers, one of whom finds himself involved with a false Messiah, the other driven to the brink of murder and lunacy, are related in counterpoint in their letters to one another, and their stories become increasingly interwoven. ***In The Inventor the author of Soul of Wood and Travels to the Enu has written a haunting, often funny, often provocative philosophical novel. In it he holds up the mirror to his own generation in a new way. It is a generation whose members all feel they have accounts to settle with the past. The methods they propose are sometimes bizarre, nightmarish, poignant. Jakov Lind's portrayal of them is both ironic and compassionate.' (Quote from inside front of dustwrapper blurb). ***'Jakov Lind's formidable talents are again evident in this autobiography. The New York Times called him "the most notable short-story writer to appear in the last two decades," on the appearance of his 'Soul of Wood, and Other Stories'. With Gunther Grass and Rolf Hochhuth, he is now ranked as a major contemporary European writer. ***First impression of the first UK edition, complete in its original dustwrapper, in nice collectable condition. Of interest to collectors of Jakov Lind and post-war European literature. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
