"The most perfectly balanced collection of stories I know... Nine Stories is a book I've gone back to at different moments in my life, and I always find something new. I've passionately loved different stories at different times, first 'Teddy,' later 'For Esmé--with Love and Squalor.' I could list all of them." -- Ann Patchett , Parade

Synopsis
The "original, first-rate, serious, and beautiful" short fiction ( New York Times Book Review ) that introduced J. D. Salinger to American readers in the years after World War II, including "A Perfect Day for Bananafish" and the first appearance of Salinger's fictional Glass family. Nine exceptional stories from one of the great literary voices of the twentieth century. Witty, urbane, and frequently affecting, Nine Stories sits alongside Salinger's very best work--a treasure that will passed down for many generations to come. The stories: A Perfect Day for Bananafish Uncle Wiggily in Connecticut Just Before the War with the Eskimos The Laughing Man Down at the Dinghy For Esmé--with Love and Squalor Pretty Mouth and Green My Eyes De Daumier-Smith's Blue Period Teddy, The "original, first-rate, serious, and beautiful" short fiction ( New York Times Book Review ) that introduced J.

The stories: A Perfect Day for Bananafish Uncle Wiggily in Connecticut Just Before the War with the Eskimos The Laughing Man Down at the Dinghy For Esm --with Love and Squalor Pretty Mouth and Green My Eyes De Daumier-Smith's Blue Period Teddy, English summary: Salvatore Romano (1875-1955) was one of the most important art collectors of the early twentieth century. In 1946, as homage to the city that had become his home, he offered his collection to Florence. Romano himself, along with his son, determined the exhibition of the different objects, juxtaposing famous works with pieces by anonymous medieval craftsmen, often from places peripheral to Italy's more noted artistic centers. The detailed descriptions provided in this volume provide a useful guide to the museum and its collection. Appendix with English translation Italian description: Salvatore Romano (1875-1955) fu uno dei massimi cultori d'arte della prima meta del Novecento. Nel 1946 dono a Firenze, la citta che lo aveva ospitato fin dal 1924, un nucleo coerente di oggetti, come contributo morale e culturale alle profonde ferite inferte dalla guerra al paese, in memoria del padre e del paese natio, Meta di Sorrento. Il progetto di allestimento fu pensato dallo stesso collezionista - le cui spoglie sono conservate al centro dell'ambiente in un sarcofago dal coperchio paleocristiano - in collaborazione con il figlio Francesco, accostando opere di artisti di grande fama a manufatti di anonimi medievali, spesso provenienti da luoghi periferici rispetto all'Italia artisticamente piu nota. Le dettagliate descrizioni di Serena Pini, Raffaella Calamini e Silvia De Luca accompagnano il visitatore attraverso la collezione. Gli argomenti spaziano dalla vicenda del fondatore alla storia del museo e della sua sede, l'antico Cenacolo di Santo Spirito. Glossario, biografie degli artisti e un ricco apparato arricchiscono il volume. Appendix with English translation

Sent a book described as good, but it was underlined IN INK from cover to cover!!! Mistakes can happen, but this seller ignored three emails, and when I submitted photos and asked for a full $21.39 refund for this worthless book, I was offered $4.99. She just wanted to get me irritated all over again. When eBay intervened and saw photos, a full refund was immediate. Avoid her like the plague!

It took another 10 days to get delivered. Packaging: as expected As described: described as NEW. The books do look NEW until you at the page edges which are tanned to almost yellow. Books were probably never read, but they probably sat in sunlight for a long time. Value: Despite yellow-tan page edges, these books were a great value.Lot Of 4 Inspector Maigret Novels (Trade PB) by Georges Simenon - BRAND NEW! (#256759728931)
