Seller: La Librería, Iberoamerikan. Buchhandlung, Bonn, NRW, Germany
Softcover. Condition: New. 9.a.ed. [1.a.ed.it.1994]. 250x129mm. Erste Auflage, 183p. Coprertina in carta opaca flessibile con risvolti. Sprache: Italienisch, Libro come nuovo in ottime condizioni. NUEVO / NEU / NEW. Dalla polvere grigia e inquieta dei sobborghi dí Los Angeles Arturo Bandini, fiero e squattrinato futuro astro della letteratura mondiale, invia i primi racconti all'ineguagliabile Hackmuth, munifico e geniale editore. Unico suo chiodo fisso: Camilla Lopez, altrettanto orgogliosa camerie-rina chicana, corpo stupendo e testa vuota; ma un'improvvisa fuga d'amore di Arturo e Camilla alla volta dell'oceano si trasforma in catastrofe erotica, e nel giro di poco tempo Bandini finisce tra le braccia mature e arroganti di una deforme ninfomane, Vera. Il rímorso per l'adulterio scatena un yero e proprio terremoto sotto i piedi dell'ingenuo scrittore, e il suo desiderio di redenzione lo porta a inseguíre e proteggere Camilla, rivelatasi grande consumatrice di marijuana e innamora-ta di Sammy, suo mediocre collega. Gravemente malato, Sammy si ritira a vivere a un passo dal deserto, cimentandosi in romanzetti western di infimo ordine e, incredibilmente, respinge Camilla. Un romanzo comico e romantico, beffardo e straziante, awolto, come la víta e i luoghi deí suoi protagonisti, da una sorta di "polvere del mondo" fatta di sabbia e di luce, di gioia e amarezza. Il deserto era 11, come un blanco anímale paziente, in artesa che gli uomini morissero e le civiltá vacillassero come fiammelle, prima di spe-gnersi del tutto. Intuii allora il coraggio dell'umaniti e fui contento di farne parte. John Fante (1909-1983), definito da Pier Vittorio Tondelli "una grande riscoperta, forse una scoperta tout-court" e da Bukowski "il narratore piú maledetto d'America", scrisse romanzi, racconti e sceneggiature per il cinema. La saga di Arturo Bandini si compone di quattro romanzi. Aspetta primavera, Bandini, La strada per Los Angeles, Sogni dí Bunker Hill e Chiedi alla polvere, che di Fante é il capolavoro. Fra i suoi altri libri, ricordiamo il romanzo La confraternita del Chianti, e le raccolte di racconti Dago Red e Il Dio di mio padre, tutti pubblicati in Italia da Marcos y Marcos, e disponibili anche in versione originale, nelle splendide edizioni di Black Sparrow Press.

Book First Edition
Mass Market Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Bantam Edition. 138 Pages. Bantam # 1194. Complete and Unabridged. Copyright 1939. A Bantam Book published by arrangement with Little, Brown & Company, Inc. Printing History - Originally published by Stackpole Sons 1939. Bantam Edition Published February 1954. 1st Printing January 1954. Very minor cover edge and corner wear. There is some evidence of light moisture exposure to a 3 x 3 inch area at the bottom next to the spine. This is not visible but can be detected by lightly rubbing across this area and a bit of stiffness to page turning of some of the first 50 pages. Red page edges are about 50% faded and a bit more pronounced at the bottom area near the spine. Just a hint of age-tanning to pages. Glue binding is holding remarkably well. No marks or stamps to this tight square book with bright covers. Fante has been compared to Steinbeck and even Hemingway. Salinger's Catcher in the Rye was published six years after this book and many note the similarities between Holden Caulfield and Fante's Arturo Bandini. Ask the Dust is a semi-autobiography set in the dust bowl depression era and the migration to California and Los Angeles. Fante uses his background of Italian immigrant Catholic family life, sports, and the writing life in his fiction. Ask the Dust has been popular since it was first published and some 60 years afterwards it found its way to the New York Times best seller list when the Black Sparrow Press reprint was released. Both Kerouac and Bukowski have acknowledged Fante's influence and in a reprint preface Bukowski wrote that Fante is my God. No doubt John Fante will be rememberd as one of the top American novelist of the 20th century. Scans and additional description available on request. From the covers - He was young, broke and driven by a raging thirst for life. I wasn't starving. I still had some old oranges under the bed. That night I ate three or four and with the darkness I walked down Bunker Hill to the downtown district. Across the street from the Columbia Buffet. I stood in a shadowed doorway and watched Camilla Lopez. She was the same, dressed in the same smock. I trembled when I saw her and a strange feeling went over me. It was a hot night. Oh, Camilla! Camilla! Mine!.".
