Very Good in Dustjacket With the Remains of a Price Sticker on the Top Front Corner. 0374257914. Edited & With An Introduction by Susan Sontag. 283 pages. hardcover. keywords: Europe Serbia Yugoslavia Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - Danilo Ki (February 22, 1935 - October 15, 1989) was a Yugoslavian/Serbian writer of Hungarian/Jewish - Serbian origin. Danilo Ki was born in Subotica, Danube Banovina, Kingdom of Yugoslavia, the son of Eduard Ki (Kis Ede), a Hungarian Jewish railway inspector, and Milica Ki (born Dragicevic) from Cetinje, Montenegro. In that time all Montenegrins concidered them to be Serbs. During World War II, he lost his father and several other family members, who died in various Nazi camps. His mother took him and his older sister Danica to Hungary for the duration of the war. After the end of the war, the family moved to Cetinje, Montenegro, Yugoslavia, where Ki graduated from high school in 1954. Ki studied literature at the University of Belgrade, and graduated in 1958 as the first student to complete a course in comparative literature. He was a prominent member of the Vidici magazine, where he worked until 1960. In 1962 he published his first two novels, Mansarda and Psalam 44. Ki received the prestigious NIN Award for his Pecanik ('Hourglass') in 1973, which he returned a few years later, due to a political dispute. During the following years, Ki received a great number of national and international awards for his prose and poetry. He spent most of his life in Paris and working as a lecturer elsewhere in France. Ki was married to Mirjana Miocinovic from 1962 to 1981. After their separation, he lived with Pascale Delpech until his early death from lung cancer in Paris. A film based on Pecanik (Fövenyora) directed by the Hungarian Szabolcs Tolnai is currently in post-production. Ki was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature and was due to win it, were it not for his untimely death in 1989. inventory #23860 Very Good in Dustjacket With the Remains of a Price Sticker on the Top Front Corner.

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 280 pages. Published in 1995. Posthumous collection of the author's nonfiction. One of Danilo Kis' finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a tiny first print run as a hardcover original only. There is NO equivalent volume in Serbian, Hungarian, or Croatian. Presents Danilo Kis' "Homo Poeticus: Essays And Interviews". Edited with an Introduction by the devoted Susan Sontag. Collects, from various, disparate original sources, Danilo Kis' pieces, which individually and collectively, represent an indispensable contribution to world literature of the writer's work. Danilo Kis was The Wandering Jew par excellence. He lived everywhere in Europe, and wherever he was, received well-deserved acclaim, awards, that is to say, prestige, not just recognition. Had he not died young at the age of 54 in 1989 (from lung cancer), he would surely have received the ultimate prize: The Nobel. In any case, no one else of his generation was more deserving. An absolute "must-have" title for Danilo Kis collectors. This title is a great collection. This is one of very few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws (because the beige DJ soils right away) or are the Softcover Edition. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER DANILO KIS TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0374257914. no. N° de réf. du vendeur 24078
