"Of Time and The River" by Thomas Wolfe - Charles Scribner's Son, NY - 1935 first American edition, early issue - 18cmx15cm - condition: very good condition, in bright original dustwrapper with minor wear
Of Time and the River (subtitled A Legend of Man's Hunger in his Youth) is a 1935 novel by American author Thomas Wolfe. It is a fictionalized autobiography, using the name Eugene Gant for Wolfe's, detailing the protagonist's early and mid-20s, during which time the character attends Harvard University, moves to New York City, where he teaches English at a university, and travels overseas with the character Francis Starwick. Francis Starwick was based on Wolfe's friend, playwright Kenneth Raisbeck. The novel was published by Scribners and edited by Maxwell Perkins. According to Publishers Weekly, it was the third-best selling work of fiction in 1935.
The Good Child's River was meant to be part of Of Time and the River but most of it was never typed up from the three handwritten ledgers which Suzanne Stutman uncovered in the William B. Wisdom Thomas Wolfe Collection of Harvard's Houghton Library manuscript collection. Unlike Wolfe's major novels, The Good Child's River doesn't include either Eugene Gant or George Webber, Wolfe's fictional counterparts, but instead focuses on Webber's lover, Esther Jack (based on Aline Bernstein). Bernstein made many notes about her life for Wolfe, who fashioned the material into The Good Child's River.[1]
A Howard Rodman adaptation of this story was presented in the Hallmark Hall of Fame on 4 October 1953, starring Thomas Mitchell as William Oliver Gant. The English composer John McCabe's Fourth Symphony is subtitled Of Time and the River.
The process of editing Of Time and the River was featured heavily in the 2016 film Genius.

Übersetzung ansehenBook arrived - but only just! Not packaged very well at all. Placed in a too-big Jiffy bag that meant it got damaged in all parts of its journey. By the time it reached me, the bag was torn.

Übersetzung ansehenIn case of multiple lots seller structurally charges double/triple postage but sends only a single parcel. This is not allowed. Simply notify Catawiki and seller will be summoned to reimburse.
Übersetzung ansehenMooie boeken, onverwachts bezorgd.
Übersetzung ansehenPas op. Veel te late verzending. Ongeldige track & trace. Verkoper heeft dubbele verzendkosten in rekening gebracht en is door Catawiki gesommeerd deze terug te betalen. Kavel was wel in orde.
Übersetzung ansehenAntwort des Verkäufers
De verzendkosten zijn terugbetaald, maar moet wel eerst wachten op uitbetaling van catawiki, dus een onterechte beoordeling. De tracking code werkt gewoon. Zeker gezien de boeken bijna gratis gewonnen zijn, een zeer onterechte beoordeling.
Appreciated the careful and robust packaging!
