Hardback. Etat : Good. Imagine that you have gone back in time 3000 years to the city of Ithaka to greet Odysseus, the sole survivor of a decade of adventures, shipwreck, and mayhem, on his long-awaited return home. Imagine his shock when she informs him that she has another surprise in store; when he left for Troy some twenty years before, he fathered twin daughters. These daughters, now mature and preternaturally gifted, are determined to travel with their mother to the Pythian oracle to learn what the gods have decreed as their fate and to do the goddess's bidding. Imagine, in other words, the next episodes of The Odyssey told in the voice of a woman, in this case a woman who has faithfully waited for her husband to return, who has diligently performed all her duties as wife and mother, and who now wants to experience the same adventure and freedom as her heroic spouse. Recounted in a fast-moving, unrhymed free verse that both pauses and gallops, Ms. Rawlings pulls us back into the landscape and the culture of pre-Attic Greece. She makes us see how this tale might have unfolded if Penelope had been celebrated by Homer. She takes us on adventures that would confound even the cunning Odysseus. Hurst, Heather (illustrateur).…

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. 1st Edition. Stated First Edition. Signed and inscribed on the half-title page. The inscription reads simply 'For Eloise, Jane Rawlings, 2003, November.' The Eloise is Eloise Armen who was the literary executor and close friend of Eva Le Gallienne. I have a number of books that were previously owned by Ms. Armen, including a biography of Eva Le Gallienne that was dedicated to Ms. Armen, as well as signed and inscribed her. As you can see from the photos, the covers of the book are quite beautiful. Their design and the illustrations are by Heather Hurst. I'm looking for wear on the covers and not finding any. The gilt lettering is very bright. The corners and edges look terrific. The page edges are very clean. The book is square and very solidly bound from cover to cover, with nicely tight pages throughout. The inside covers and end papers are a mapped design of Greece in the front and the Aegean Sea at the rear. The previous owner penciled in the words 'signed presentation copy to Eloise Armen' off the top edge of the first front end paper. There is no other penciling or writing of any kind to be found, with the exception of the author's signed inscription, anywhere in the book. There are no markings. There are no attachments. And I'm not seeing any creasing at all on any of the pages. Same goes for soiling, I can't find any at all. The pages are exceptionally clean. So this is a very beautiful book in very good condition. The dust jacket has a little bit of creasing off the top and bottom edges. There are no tears. The jacket is very clean. The white flaps are very clean as well. They are in very good shape (there is one speck of a spot) . The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. It will be fitted with a protective cover after the photos are scanned. From the dust jacket: 'This is a woman's tail unlike any that is ever been conceived or written, and it contains, at the same time, the stuff of high art and bounding adventure.
