9788528616613BERTRAND BRASIL. new. A espera estreia de uma mestre da fico moderna Publicado em 1926 mas ainda indito no Brasil Lolly Willowes o primeiro romance de uma das mais injustiadas escritoras de todos os tempos: Sylvia Townsend Warner. Com uma escrita afiada e polmica ela foi uma das primeiras feministas a trazerem tona temas sens�veis muitos deles explorados por Virginia Woolf dcadas depois. A perda do pai marcou para sempre a vida de Lolly Willowes. � por isso que ainda criana ela decide morar com o irmo onde cuida dos sobrinhos e ajuda a cunhada nas tarefas domsticas. Durante vinte anos Lolly se anula resumindo-se a uma tia amada pela fam�lia. Solteirona com apenas vinte e oito anos ela decide abandonar a Londres urbana e se mudar para a vila rural Great Mop onde florescer emocional e espiritualmente. No entanto tudo se complica ap�s a visita de um gato que a jovem tem certeza de que foi enviado pelas foras das trevas pelo pr�prio demnio. Deliciosamente irnico mgico e subversivo este o primeiro romance da autora. Clssico da primeira metade do sculo XX Lolly Willowes o retrato de uma mulher forte capaz de encontrar sua liberdade e desfazer as amarras que lhe foram impostas. ""Um romance que sob a superf�cie terna revela um corao escuro e visceral. Lolly Willowes elegante e encantador. Transcende a sua poca."" The Observer ""Sylvia tem o talento de um gnio."" The Guardian ""Lolly Willowes pode sugerir a libertao ou a loucura. � uma hist�ria tensa que mostra como dif�cil ter controle sobre a pr�pria vida como fcil tomar um inexorvel desvio rumo ao desconhecido.""

192721212221927. London: Chattos and Windos. 1927. 8vo. Original patterned boards with gilt title lettering to spine; cream dust jacket with blue border; pp. viii 251 1; bookplate of owner to front pastedown; minimal foxing to preliminaries and all edges; slight toning to dust jacket spine; otherwise very good. First edition signed by the author on title page.Sylvia Townsend Warner contemporary of the likes of Djuna Barnes contributed short stories to The New Yorker for 40 years and would go onto write six novels each subscribing to her mantra that all should depict; ""the oddness of the world and the surprisingness of mankind"". Simultaneous to being a highly acclaimed author she was also a talented translator responsible for renditions of Proust's Contre Saint-Beuve into English as well as a noted biography of the novelist T.H. White and alongside her life partner the poet Valentine Ackland she would become known as ""The Leading Communist of Wessex"". This miniature critique of Christian evangelism and the acts of the British empire seem eerily contemporary and Mr. Fortune's Maggot tells the tale of a banker who decides to become a missionary on an entirely remote island in the South Pacific making one very meaningful convert.Although her work was re-established in the 70's through the efforts of the seminal feminist press Virago she remains a mysterious creative mind making this signed first edition scarce. hardcover
