Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: good. New Edition. Octavo, 1018 pages, cloth, slight acidic burn at facing pages 376-377 from a bookshop bookmarker; dj frayed at perimeter. . Back by popular demand, this is Wright's only published novel, preceded only by a single short story, "1915?". His imaginary world, Islandia, has been compared to Tolkien's Middle Earth. This appeared after his sudden death, after being edited down from the 2300-page mss. "It is a work of high intellectual power, of deep human insight, of penetrating social and philosophical criticism, and it is also a work of poetic and passionate tenderness." - Lawrence Clark Powell. Has anyone seriously compared and contrasted this to that other lawyer's work, Thomas More's UTOPIA ? Map endpapers, internal map partially reproduced on the top cover. [ Bleiler2, p. 212 ].

Libro Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Good Plus. No Jacket. First Edition. A great utopian fantasy novel, comparable in conception and complexity to Tolkien's "Middle Earth." Wright, a law professor and legal scholar, created "Islandia" over many years in his free time after his academic duties at various U.S. universities, including Stanford, Michigan and Pennsylvania. When he died in an auto accident in New Mexico in 1931, he left a manuscript of over 2,300 pages plus appendices on a country called "Islandia," The appendices and a book-length general history of Islandia described language, culture, customs, population, historic peerage, and geography. His wife and daughter edited the work and trimmed it to the 1,013 pages published in the first edition in 1942. This copy is an early printing of the 1942 First Edition, lacking the publisher's colophon on the copyright page signifying the first printing. The original light tan buckram-covered boards are age and sun-darkened, particulary on the spine and along the edges, with some minor fraying of the cloth at the corners. The previous owner's bookplate is pasted to the front free endpage, concealing part of the Robert Graves-designed map on the pastedown. The front endpapers and first two dozen pages of text show a mild lower corner crease on the thin, WWII-era pages; text edges are lightly soiled and stained. Sorry, the dustjacket is missing. All that said, the book remains the 1942 first edition, complete and with the Leonard Bacon introduction. It is basically clean and unmarked, still tight and square. A great novel at a decent price.
