About This Item
London: Jonathan Cape, 1985 0224029827. First edition. First printing. Hardback. VG. No dustwrapper. Slightly bumped at the base of the spine. No inscriptions or annotations but at some point pencil notes have been written on rear end page and then rubbed out. 352 pages. Comprises 'A Little Boy in Search of God'; 'A Young Man in Search of Love'; 'Lost in America' and a new introduction by the author: 'The Beginning'. In this colourful portrait of his youth, we sense the tension in Singer's personality; he was spiritually rooted in the Middle Ages but also a heretic, fascinated by magic, spirits and dybbuks. Singer won the Nobel Prize for literature. .
