New York. 1944. Knopf. 1st American Edition. Roughened Paper Running in A Verticle Line Along The Front Free Endpaper Near the Spine, Otherwise Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket With Some Pieces Missing. Translated from the Spanish by Stuart Edgar Grummon. 339 pages. hardcover. keywords: Literature Translated Argentina Latin America. FROM THE PUBLISHER-The scene of THE BAY OF SILENCE is Buenos Aires, in the second quarter of the century. The characters are people named Tregua, Acevedo, Gloria Bambil, Anselmi; one of them, the woman whose fortitude and nobility of spirit give meaning to Tregua's days and direction to his story, has no name at all. For this is Tregua's story-the story of an eager young student feeling his way through the uncertainties and questionings of youth to the profound. illusionless wisdom of a cultured maturity. It is also the story of his friends and his opponents, of the women who loved him, and the one woman to whom he could not aspire. Simply as a story it is a moving and satisfying experience. But beyond that it presents a remarkably full and human picture of the life of the Argentine metropolis: its talkative, arguing students; its conservative governing class clinging tight to the reins 0f power; its new-rich seeking to climb the social ladder; its self-absorbed middle groups; its inarticulate workers; its o1d Creole families. Yet, in a sense, Argentina is only by chance its setting, for Mallea is concerned with the fundamental problems of our century-problems 0f individual freedom, of man's responsibility to man, of political power and its sources and limits, of nationalism and internationalism. inventory #3233.
