Hardback. Etat : Good. Birdsong is a novel about the tenderness and the limits of human flesh, about men and women living at the edge. Set mostly in France spanning the years before and during the First World War, it captures the drama and destruction of that era as it tells the story of Stephen, a young Englishman who is impelled through a series of extreme experiences, from a traumatic clandestine love affair which rips apart the bourgeois French family he lives with, through grim insanity of the Great War. In the vast scenes of suffering and the tender depiction of human love, Birdsong is at times almost unbearably too moving to read. Faulks has brought to it the same richness of writing and emotional intimacy that characterised The Girl at the Lion d'Or, but has widened the scope to produce a novel of moving grandeur. Since its first publication, Birdsong has become a huge bestseller and one of the most popular literary novels of its generation. In 2012 it was adapted into an acclaimed two-part TV drama starring Eddie Redmayne. N° de réf. du vendeur 00060559583

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Good. First Edition. Seventh impression of the true first edition, with the following number-string sequence on the printer's page: 7 9 8. ***Very good in green cloth-covered boards with silver titles to the spine. Head and tail of spine slightly creased. Corners sharp. Boards have a few light marks from handling, and a small indentation at the top edge of the back board. Light vertical reading creases to the spine, but no reading lean to the binding. Page block edges nice and clean. Internally also very good with no inscriptions. Pages clean. No foxing. No creases or tears. Spine tight. ***In a good only colour-illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of £14.99 net. The dustwrapper is complete without any chips or tears, but the extremities are very rubbed and creased, which is often the case with this book, especially at the head and tail of the spine and top edges, as well as down the fore-edge of the front panel at the foldover crease. The edges of the large flaps are slightly creased at the top edge. There is quite a lot of discoloration to the white areas of the dustwrapper, and a patch on the inside where a sticker has been removed (not visible on the outside). No fading to the spine colour of the dustwrapper, which is quite uncommon, but there is a strip of fading down the front panel near the spine. ***407 pages. 242mm x 160mm. ***"When I go from here, let this be my parting word that what I have seen is unsurpassable." This line, quoted by Wilfred Owen to his mother on their final meeting, is the epigraph to this extraordinary novel. ***'Set before and during the Great War, it captures the drama of that era on both a national and personal scale. It is the story of Stephen, a young Englishman, who arrives in Amiens in 1910. His life goes through a series of traumatic experiences, from the clandestine love affair that tears apart the family with whom he lives, to the unprecedented experience of the war itself. ***"Birdsong" is thronged with living characters: Isabelle, the apparently conventional yet passionately driven wife of Stephen's French employer; Michael Weir, his one true friend; Jack Firebrace, a miner from East London betrayed by his loving heart; Jeanne, a woman of unending patience and resource. ***The plot follows two main characters living at different times: the first is Stephen Wraysford, a British soldier on the front line in Amiens during the First World War, and the second is his granddaughter, Elizabeth Benson, whose 1970s plotline follows her attempts to recover an understanding of Stephen's experience of the war. "Birdsong" has an interesting episodic structure, split into seven sections which move between three different periods of time before, during and after the war in the Stephen Wraysford plot, and three different windows of time in the 1970s Benson plot. ***To the vast scenes of suffering and the tender depiction of human love Faulks has brought the same emotional intimacy that characterised "The Girl at the Lion d'Or". Here he has widened the scope to produce a novel of moving grandeur.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***A seventh impression of the true first edition, in its original dustwrapper. A good only reading copy of a classic work, in the original format - priced accordingly. ***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. N° de réf. du vendeur 8629
