(SEE ALSO OTHER LIBRARY OF AMERICA TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 1931082197. One of the greatest writer/composer/artists of the 20th century. Please note: Should NOT be confused with the regular trade edition. It comes with a pristine copy, laid-in, of the Publisher's Promotional Material. This is one of few copies of the First Library of America Slipcased Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. None of the copies was sold to the public. The First Slipcased Edition was distributed to libraries and LOA subscribers only. An absolute "must-have" title for Paul Bowles collectors. Were it not for their exquisite, lapidary writing, Paul Bowles' creepy, "crawls-under-your-skin" novels would be unbearable in their evocation of existential terror for even the most jaded reader. The great Italian director Bernardo Bertolucci adapted "The Sheltering Sky" into a great film in which Bowles himself appears, an oracular and indelible presence. "In a prose style of meticulous calm and stunning visual precision, Bowles tracks Port and Kit Moresby on a journey through the desert that culminates in death and madness" (Publisher's blurb on "The Sheltering Sky").
While "The Sheltering Sky" is Bowles' iconic achievement, "Let It Come Down" and "The Spider's House" are his most complex works. "Sui generis" in American literature, unsurpassed masterpieces even by him. Re-presents Paul Bowles' "The Sheltering Sky", "Let It Come Down", and "The Spider's House". The book is guaranteed to last for several generations of readers and collectors (despite frequent and regular use, the estimated life span of Library of America Editions is 1000 years un-used, they will last forever).
Printed to the highest standards on acid-free paper, utilizing sewn binding, closely woven rayon cloth boards, satin bound-in ribbon marker, and a page layout that is both readable and elegant. Text by Paul Bowles edited and annotated by Daniel Halpern. An austerely elegant production: Regular-sized volume format. The Slipcased Edition has the same ISBN as the regular trade edition.
Published in a small and limited first print run as a Slipcased Edition for distribution to libraries and LOA subscribers only. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Retrospective collection of the author's masterpiece-novels.
