A propos de cet article

Limited Edition, Pulitzer Prized Series, LIKE NEW! Bound in full genuine leather with raised hubs, elaborate 22?karat gilt tooling, all edges gilt, and moire silk endpapers with a sewn?in ribbon marker, this volume exemplifies Franklin Library?s highest?grade 1970s binding. The text is sewn (not glued) on high?quality, opaque paper, produced for both durability and an elegant shelf presentation. Won Pulitzer Prize for the Novel in 1938. 306 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm. . . . . A gently satirical novel, presented as a posthumous ?memoir,? that uses the letters and papers of Boston Brahmin George Apley to trace his life from the late nineteenth century into the early twentieth. Through accounts of his Harvard education, well?regulated marriage, club life on Beacon Hill, and anxious efforts to preserve old New England standards against modern social change, John P. Marquand offers a nuanced portrait of a man shaped - and often constrained - by class, duty, and tradition, turning Apley?s private compromises into a broader commentary on a fading upper?class world. John P. Marquand (1893?1960) was an American novelist and short?story writer best known for his satirical studies of New England society and for the popular Mr. Moto spy novels. Born in Wilmington, Delaware, and educated at Harvard, he served in World War I and went on to build a successful career in magazines and fiction, winning the 1938 Pulitzer Prize for the Novel for The Late George Apley, after which he increasingly focused on sophisticated social comedies that examined the anxieties and pretensions of the American professional and upper?middle classes.…
