PRIMERA EDICIÃN. FIRST EDITION / FIRST PRINTING. EXCELENTE ejemplar FIRMADO por la autora / SIGNED by the author. Editado en tapa blanda, con solapas, en muy buen estado de conservación. Colección "Narrativas hispánicas" núm. 248. Diseño de la colección de Julio Vivas. Ilustración de la cubierta "Thursday-Mending" de Katherine Ace (1994). Irse de casa es liberarse de la sumisión a los padres, de la costumbre de convivir con alguien a quien se ha dejado de amar o cuya actitud posesiva y dominadora la hace insufrible. Irse de casa es acceder a la autonomÃa, asumir el riesgo del cambio incluso al precio de la soledad, que, como señalaba la escritora, es más absurdamente temida hoy por las más jóvenes generaciones. Cubiertas con ligeros signos de dobleces y leve marca de un vaso en la página de respeto. Interior en muy buen estado. 349 pp
London. 1999. Harvill Press. 1st British Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 1860463576. Translated from the Spanish by Margaret Jull Costa. 336 pages. hardcover. keywords: Europe Spain Literature Translated Women World Literature. DESCRIPTION - Winner of the Spanish National Prize for Literature. On the day he is released from prison in Madrid, Leonardo learns of his parents' death in a car crash. He returns to their empty town house, a rich young man now, but with a life to reconstruct out of fragments. At first all he wants is to be alone to look over books, diaries, and old photographs, the mute witnesses to his own childhood and his parents' wretched marriage. But in time he concentrates on the Quinta Blanca, the white house by the cliff edge where his grandmother used to nourish him on stories, especially Hans Christian Andersen's The Snow Queen. When Leonardo revisits this childhood home at Christmas as the guest of its new owner, Casilda, he, too, has the sliver of ice removed from his heart by the one woman capable of doing so, and his own redemption is at hand. The Farewell Angel is about storytelling, about the determining power of stories to harm and to heal. Centered on a lighthouse and the sea-washed rocks beneath it, this haunting novel is a triumph of subtle narrative by the prize-winning author of Variable Cloud. inventory #29469
