Seller's Description:
Very good in good dust jacket. Some staining of page edges-esp. light pen marks on side. Some pen marks on p.46. DJ is a little grubby from previous handling, and shows some shelf wear. 91 p. Paperback with pictorial matt paper dust jacket ** If you have any queries about this book, please don't hesitate to contact us on hello@ravenbooks. ie** A collection of short stories from the early years of Man Booker Prize-winning author John Banville's career, "Long Lankin" explores the passionate emotions--fear, jealousy, desire--that course beneath the surface of everyday life. From a couple at risk of being torn apart by the allure of wealth to an old man's descent into nature, the tales in this collection showcase the talents that launched Banville onto the literary scene. Offering a unique insight into the mind of "one of the great living masters of English-language prose" ("Los Angeles Times"), these nine haunting sketches stand alone as canny observations on the turbulence of the human condition. This revised edition omits two stories from the 1970 edition, and introduces a new one "De Rerum Natura".
