A propos de cet article

Second impression of the true first edition, with the following number-string sequence on the printer's page: 2 4 6 8 10 9 7 5 3. With 'Shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2007' on the front of the dustwrapper. ***Near fine in black boards with silver titles to the spine. The book feels unread and has no noticeable faults. The boards are clean and unmarked. No bumps or creases. Corners sharp. Page block edges clean. No reading lean. Spine tight. Internally also near fine with no inscriptions, and no marks. No creases or tears. Pages clean. ***In a near fine colour illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of £12.99. The dustwrapper is also flawless. No chips, creases or tears. No fading, even to the light-sensitive colours on the spine. Dustwrapper bright and crisp. ***261 pages plus a single page of acknowledgements at the back of the book. 224mm x 140mm. ***'"The Gathering" sends fresh blood through the Irish literary tradition, combining the lyricism of the old with the shock of the new. As in all Anne Enright's work, fiction and non-fiction, this is a book of daring, wit and insight: her distinctive intelligence twisting the world a fraction, and giving it back to us in a new and unforgettable light.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'Anne Teresa Enright FRSL (born 11 October 1962) is an Irish writer. The first Laureate for Irish Fiction (2015–2018) and winner of the Man Booker Prize (2007), she has published seven novels, many short stories, and a non-fiction work called "Making Babies: Stumbling into Motherhood", about the birth of her two children. Her essays on literary themes have appeared in the London Review of Books and The New York Review of Books, and she writes for the books pages of The Irish Times and The Guardian. Her fiction explores themes such as family, love, identity and motherhood. Enright won the 2007 Man Booker Prize for her fourth novel "The Gathering". Her second novel, "What Are You Like?", was shortlisted in the novel category of the 2000 Whitbread Awards. Her 2012 novel "The Forgotten Waltz" won the Andre Carnegie Medal for Fiction. Her novel "The Green Road" was shortlisted for the Woman's Prize, and won The Irish Novel of the Year (2015). "The Gathering" is a 2007 novel by Irish writer Anne Enright. It won the 2007 Booker Prize. Although it received mostly favourable reviews on its first publication, sales of The Gathering had been modest before it was named as one of the six books on the Booker Prize shortlist in September 2007. After winning the prize, sales more than doubled compared to sales before the announcement. Enright described the book as "--- the intellectual equivalent of a Hollywood weepie."' (Wiki) ***A second impression of the true first edition, in its original dustwrapper, in nice, bright, clean, crisp condition. The book went on to win the Man Booker Prize 2007. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.…
