About This Item
New York:: The Free Press (Simon & Schuster),, (2004.). SIGNED hardcover first edition -. Near fine in fine dust jacket (bottom edge of textblock slightly bumped with light creasing to lower corner of first several pages.). First printing. An absorbing new novel by the award-winning author of 'Imaging Argentina.' As Michael Cunningham states, it 'begins with a fascinating premise - the unacknowledged source of Joseph Conrad's greatest novels (that is, the tragic accidental encounter at sea between a British minesweeper and a German submarine) - and takes it to considerable heights. By the novel's end, Thornton has cast a light not only onto Conrad's genius but onto the mystery of inspiration itself. SIGNED by the author on the title page.
