Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. First Vintage Books Edition, February 1992, 1st printing. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition. "In 1947, in the days before gentrification and urban blight, Eddie Wenzek's bar at 722 Sycamore Street in Buffalo, New York, was as fine a place as you could spend a Friday evening. This pungently evocative work of urban archaeology takes us there . . . to drink a Duquesne Pilsner and listen to 'I Wonder, I Wander' on the jukebox . . . to rub shoulders with a clientele of Polish foundry and railroad workers . . . to listen to Eddie begin his inimitable stories with 'Say you're me.' As Verlyn Klinkenborg resurrects 'the last fine time' in America, he chronicles both the flowering and the decline of the blue-collar city with unparalleled vividness and compassion." [publisher copy] "Brings an era to life . . . All at once, a small, bygone portion of America becomes so real that we seem to be not so much reading about it as drawing it forth from our own memories."--Anne Tyler, Boston Globe. "THE LAST FINE TIME is about Buffalo in roughly the same way Moby Dick is about whaling. . . [It] is a brilliantly written place where nostalgia turns into a meditation on culture."--Buffalo News. "From its deft first sentence ("Snow begins as a rumor in Buffalo, New York"), this detailed, wistfully affectionate re-creation of the immigrant experience clarifies the human cost of the disappearance of once-distinctive ethnic neighborhoods. Klinkenborg tells the story of a tavern in Polish-American East Buffalo that his father-in-law, Eddie Wenzek, inherited in 1947 at age 27. Originally purchased by his father in 1922 during Prohibition, the workingman's bar was transformed by Eddie into a fashionable late-night spot. The flowing narrative evokes a time and place where streetcars clattered, where advertising had not yet molded a consumerist culture in a postwar America 'beating its swords into appliances.' The Wenzeks sold the tavern in 1970 and moved to the suburbs. Klinkenborg links the bar's fortunes to the gradual erosion of Buffalo's sense of destiny, 'a sad tale of unknotting.'"--Publishers Weekly. "Don't miss this book. . . THE LAST FINE TIME is a landmark in national self-examination."--Newsday. Fine paperback original, hung w/image of George & Eddie's neon sign on front bright wrappers, brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine. Codice articolo RUB3134
