Editore: New York City, NY: Crown Publishers, 2000, 2001
ISBN 10: 0609608479ISBN 13: 9780609608470
Libro Prima edizione Copia autografata
Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 153 pages. Published in 2000. Collection of pieces on subject. Intended by the author as the "essayistic" version and sequel to her ground-breaking novel, "Like Water For Chocolate", it is one of the finest books on its subject ever written. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Laura Esquivel's "Between Two Fires: Intimate Writings On Life, Love, Food & Flavor" in a felicitous English translation. A sumptuous delight. "In all of these essays, Esquivel reflects on the essential way that food connects people to the important, spiritual aspects of life, often promoting her ideal of the New Man who 'will give equal value to production and reproduction, to reason and emotion, to the intimate and the public, to the material and the spiritual'. She employs her characteristic blend of anecdotes and Mexican recipes. Other works are more philosophical and describe the time the author gave up chocolate as a political statement, among other things. Esquivel has a strong, distinctive voice and a passion for her subject" (Publishers Weekly). An absolute "must-have" title for Laura Esquivel collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black fountain pen on the title page by Laura Esquivel. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce signed copy thus. One of the finest Latin-American writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER LAURA ESQUIVEL TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0609608479. Signed by Author.
