Across the River and Into the Trees

Hemingway, Ernest

Edité par Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, 1950

First printing with Scribner's "A" on the copyright page and bright yellow on the jacket spine. A Near Fine copy in Very Good+ dust jacket. Some foxing to endpapers, otherwise clean throughout. Dust jacket with some edgewear, including a nick to top edge of front panel touching the G in Hemingway, and a bit of loss at fold of lower panel. Still a very bright and attractive example. One of Hemingway's later novels, Across the River and Into the Trees grapples with the distorting power of memory at the end of life. The novel follows the meditations and ruminations of Colonel Richard Cantwell, who, while sitting in a duck blind in Venice, Italy, looks back on his life. While the book topped the New York Times bestseller list for many weeks, it saw mixed critical response: Cantwell's reflections on nostalgia and remorse sharply divided reviewers and the general reading public. Near Fine in Very Good + dust jacket. N° de réf. du vendeur 7864
