193423310New York: Greenberg: Publisher. Very Good in Very Good dj. c.1934. First American Edition. Hardcover. price-clipped light shelfwear slight bumping/fraying to bottom front corner faint bookseller's vintage rubber stamp Bertrand Smith's Book Store Long Beach California at bottom corner of front pastedown; jacket shows some wear along top edge a few tiny nicks and tears light scuffing. Per the jacket blurb this novel first published in England in 1933 is "an absorbing and moving story of English countryside life which presents vividly the conflict of slow-dying feudal conditions and the spread of urban influences." Various laudatory quotes from various British reviewers are reproduced on the front jacket flap along with the statement that "it has aroused a great deal of discussion and has already achieved the 'best seller' lists." The New York Times reviewer was impressed as well calling it "a proletarian novel entirely free from bias animus or exaggeration" and praising it for having "no taint of propaganda" because you know The New York Times wasn't havin' none of that proletarian propaganda in its vivid depiction of "revolutionary conditions in the agricultural England of today." The whole this critic further opined "in its intensity its breadth its largeness of vision and its strength is nothing short of epic -- an epic of labor that holds you close-gripped from start to close." And with no propaganda too. The beautiful dust jacket art is by David Berger. . Greenberg: Publisher hardcover books
