Paperback. Zustand: Sehr gut. 462 p. Lediglich die Broschur ist leicht berieben. Sonst aber ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar/ Only the booklet is slightly rubbed. But otherwise a good and clean copy. - (Introduction) Call It Sleep is the most profound novel of Jewish life that I have ever read by an American. It is a work of high art, written out of the full resources of modernism. It subtly interweaves gutter, cellar, sexual and religious taboos with the overwhelming love between a mother and son. It brings together the darkness and light of Jewish immigrant life before the First World War as experienced by a very young boy, really a child, who depends on his imagination alone to fend off a world so hostile that it begins with his own father. When Henry Roth published Call It Sleep, his first and only novel, in 1934, it was greeted with critical acclaim, but quickly dropped out of sight, as did its twenty-eight-year-old author. Only with its paperback publication in 1964 did the novel receive the recognition it deserved. Call It Sleep was the first paperback ever to be reviewed on the front page of The New York Times Book Review and it became a nationwide bestseller, with over a million copies in print. HENRY roth was born in 1906 in what was then the Austro-Hungarian Empire. His family emigrated to the United States in 1908 and he grew up in New York City, on the Lower East Side s Avenue D. He has, at various times, worked as a toolmaker and waterfowl farmer, sold maple syrup, raked blueberries, and tutored math. He is also the author of Shifting Landscapes, a collection of essays, short stories, and interviews. He lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico. ISBN 9780374522926 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 540.
