The Asiatics, Paperback/Frederic Prokosch
Momentan nu sunt oferte disponibile.
Description Andr Gide praised The Asiatics as "an authentic masterpiece"; Thomas Mann called it "brilliant." First published in 1935 and virtually unavailable for years, this extraordinary novel tells the story of a young American--the unnamed narrator--who hitchhikes his way across Asia, from Beirut to China, living off the land and depending on the hospitality of the people he meets along the road. As Pico Iyer writes in the introduction, " Prokosch] catches the peculiar logic that makes travel a land of alternative reality, a foreign state in itself that is an intoxication." About the author Frederic Prokosch (1908-89) was a distinguished American poet and novelist of the 1930s and 1940s. Among his other novels are The Seven Who Fled (1937) and Night of the Poor. Pico Iyer is the author of several books of travel and fiction, including Video Night in Kathmandu.
