paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that… encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Dustwrapper bright. ***183 pages. 224mm x 142mm. ***'Of contemporary German writers with an international reputation, Uwe Johnson is among the most important. Reviewing his first novel "Speculations about Jakob" in the Observer, Philip Toynbee called him "one of the most interesting and independent of young modern novelists". His latest work concerns two lovers who suddenly find themselves separated by the Berlin Wall. What started as a perfunctory affair between a West German photographer and an East German nurse becomes highly charged with frustration. Exasperated by his inability to reach her, the young man advises her to escape. Tension builds up as with minute detail the escape machinery is set in motion. More vividly than any political tract or document, this tale of sober and tough realism describes the bonds of restriction that drive people to the limits of their sanity. The story is told alternately by the man and the girl, in two views, two different sets of experience. The shifting perspective reflects the elusive nature of truth, for there is no generally valid perception; each mind is singular, personal, its own mirror.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'Uwe Johnson (20 July 1934 - 22 February 1984) was a German writer, editor, and scholar. He was born in Kammin in Pomerania (now Kamień Pomorski, Poland). (Wiki) ***Uwe Johnson studied German language and literature at the University of Rostock and Leipzig. In 1959, he left East Germany and moved to West Berlin. He was awarded the Fortune Prize of West Berlin for his first novel "Speculations about Jakob", and the International Publishers' Prize for "The Third Book about Achim", which will be published in Britain in 1968. (Biography taken from the back flap of the dustwrapper) ***A near fine first impression of the first UK edition of Uwe Johnson's second published work. Very uncommon. ***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.
