Etat : Fine. CONDITION NOTES: Paperback. Looks brand new. Excellent overall condition. Spine is tight and unbroken. Pages are clean with no writing or highlighting. SYNOPSIS: This engagingly human and candid novel takes us deep into a world of obsession in which a happily settled woman attempts to piece together the fragments of an unresolved episode from her past. She recalls a period when, as a writer in her thirties, she was living and working on the other coast and found herself involved in a powerful yet uncertain relationship with a much younger man. As she examines and reinterprets events from the distance of time, she recounts in absorbing detail the increasing complexity of her experience, its gradual dissolution, and the disorienting spaces it left behind. With ruthless honesty, artful analysis, and crystalline depictions of human and natural landscapes, The End of the Story combines a deeply serious intention with an abiding sense of the absurd as it illuminates the dilemmas of loss and the fallibility of memory.

Soft cover. Etat : Fine. 1st Edition. This paperback High Risk Books edition first published in 1996 by Serpent's Tail, 1st printing. 231pp. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in FINE condition. "Mislabeled boxes, problems with visiting nurses, confusing notes, an outing to the county fair--such are the obstacles in the way of the unnamed narrator of THE END OF THE STORY as she attempts to organize her memories of a love affair into a novel. With compassion, wit, and what appears to be candor she seeks to determine what she actually knows about herself and her past, but we begin to suspect, along with her, that given the elusiveness of memory and understanding, any tale retrieved from the past must be a fiction." [publisher copy] "Surgically exact. . . with a sharp wit and an unerring eye, Davis chronicles the disintegration of a short-lived affair and, more significantly, its aftermath. This breathtakingly elegant and unsentimental first novel is about passion, regret, and memory: about the psychology of the spot where recollection and loss intersect."--Details. "Davis has written a brilliant essay in the form of a novel."--The New Yorker. "Constructed in brutally perceptive and dazzlingly revelatory prose, this is a stunning work."--Booklist. "An amazingly quiet and delicately fragmentary book. . . THE END OF THE STORY succeeds in. . . giving the reader both the story and the painful work that goes into its making, and as such it is not only beautiful, but an extraordinary and very modern achievement."--New York Observer. A Fine paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, Finland flaps & pages, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine. Quite presentable. N° de réf. du vendeur RUB3474
