About This Item
New York:Pantheon Books, (1958). hard cover. Very Good/Very Good. New York:Pantheon Books. (1958). 119pp. Illustrated. Hardcover with dust jacket. A very good clean copy inside and out, with a very good, slightly soiled and edgeworn, price-clipped dust jacket. *"The graying ruins of the columned temples of Paestum are the scene of this volume in Bryher's series of significant moments in history when mankind has faced the dissolution of an epoch. Deserted now except for the tourists to Italy, Paestum becomes dramatically alive again through the pen of one of the distinguished novelists of today. With gentleness and compassion, Bryher tells the moving story of Harmonia, the priestess and guardian of the Poseidonian relics, as she faces the increasing power of the Lucanian conquerors and the disintegration of her people."...dj
