Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. 1st Edition. NEW UK HARDBACK. SIGNED by ROBERT FREEMAN WEXLER & LUCIUS SHEPARD [NO Inscription]. LIMITED Ed. #235/300. DJ in Clear, ARCHIVAL MYLAR WRAP. NO remainder mark. "Reconciliation, longing, and ambiguity combine in one astounding locale: Springdale. Is it a mundane New England town on a picturesque river, or the nexus of the paradoxical? Springdale appears to be a quiet village, unblemished by shopping mall or mega-store. The town sits in a fertile valley, surrounded by countryside rich in natural wonder. Summers, tourists attend the area's many arts and music festivals, and hikers crowd the trails. In the fall, reds and yellows of turning leaves decorate the landscape, and in winter, mountain resorts fill with avid skiers. But some say Springdale exists only on the contoured highways of our collective imagination. Others point to references dating back to Colonial Boston, to multiple versions of a ballad telling a story of remorse and disgrace. Here are three facts: 1. Maps cannot be trusted; 2. All History is awash with fraud and hoax; 3. Springdale is an absence of identity. For two people, a lawyer named Patrick Travis and a television actor named Richard Shelling, Springdale is home and anti-home, a place of comfort and a distortion of everyday life. They are strangers to each other, yet connected. Their lives will intersect with a force that shatters both." | SHIPS AIRMAIL INTERNATIONALLY. Signed by Author(s).…
