Présentation de l'éditeur
This is the second volume of Simon Raven’s ‘First Born of Egypt’ series. Marius Stern, the wayward son of Gregory Stern, has survived earlier escapades and is safely back at prep school – assisted by his father’s generous contribution to the school’s new shooting range. Fielding Gray and Jeremy Morrison are returning home via Venice, where they encounter the friar, Piero, an ex-male whore and a figure from a shared but distant past. Back in England, at the Wiltshire family home, Lord Canteloupe is restless. He finds his calm disturbed by events: the arrival of Piero; Jeremy’s father’s threat to saddle his son with the responsibility of the family estate; and the dramatic resistance of Gregory Stern to attempted blackmail.

Etat : FINE. First printing. The second novel in this saga by this English novelist, essayist, and dramatist, who was also controversial amusing and offensive - a series whose theme is "the purposes, beliefs and ways of life of the growing young as observed, encouraged or deplored by their elders." Written primarily for money (Raven was for many year's on Blood's payroll), in these he also had "fun killing off many of the survivors from the earlier sequence, usually in absurd and/or humiliating circumstances." 250 pp. Wraparound dust jacket painting by Lawrence Toynbee. Very near fine in a like dustjacket. N° de réf. du vendeur 85695

Hardback. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. First Edition. THE FACE OF THE WATERS. Simon Raven. Blond & Briggs, London 1985 First edition. ISBN 0856341762 250pp Hardback. Simon Arthur Noël Raven (28 December 1927 - 12 May 2001) was an English novelist, essayist, dramatist and raconteur who, in a writing career of forty years, caused controversy, amusement and offence. His obituary in The Guardian noted that, "he combined elements of Flashman, Waugh's Captain Grimes and the Earl of Rochester", and that he reminded Noel Annan, his Cambridge tutor, of the young Guy Burgess. Among the many things said about him, perhaps the most quoted was that he had "the mind of a cad and the pen of an angel". E W Swanton called Raven's cricket memoir Shadows in the Grass "the filthiest cricket book ever written". He has also been called "cynical" and "cold-blooded", his characters "guaranteed to behave badly under pressure; most of them are vile without any pressure at all". His unashamed credo was "a robust eighteenth-century paganism.allied to a deep contempt for the egalitarian code of post-war England. This is the second volume in Simon Raven's 'First Born of Egypt' saga This copy is in FINE condition. The price clipped dustwrapper is sunned to the spine but is otherwise in FINE condition Ref J6.
