U.S.A.: New Directions, 2002. First U.S. Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Translated from the Spanish by Patricia Haugaard. Awarded the 1989 Nobel Prize for Literature, Cela, now well on in his eighties, is yet as crafty and craftful as ever. Boxwood, which can perhaps best be described as a non-novel, has none of the structural signposts readers generally expect: there is no exposition, no crux, no denouement. Instead we have a mix of folklore, tradition, superstition, autobiographical snatches, cooking directions, a litany of nautical disasters on the coast of Deathships from afar with cargoes of oranges, typewriters, iron ore, oil, spiceselements of nature both cruel and beautiful, of man both saint and sinner, whales, witches, mermaids, ghosts, the exquisite, the crass all against the background of Cela's birthplace, Galicia. Camilo Jose Celahas published more than fifty books, including THE FAMILY OF PASCUAL DUARTE, HIVE, and MAZURKA FOR TWO DEAD MEN. As new, unread, first edition, first printing, in navy blue cloth boards, in as new, mylar-protected dust jacket.{Not remainder-marked or price-clipped} L122
