Description
Legatura editoriale in tela con titoli dorati, cm 18.5 x 12, pp (16) 187 (1) + (36) di giudizi critici. In inglese. Seconda edizione, dello stesso anno della prima. Helene Gingold fu attrice, drammaturga e scrittrice; recitò fra l’altro in It is for England!, film patriottico del 1916 diretto dal secondo marito Laurence Cowen (1865-1942). La raccolta comprende sette racconti: The Rabbi of Moscow (A Story of Two Religions), Veritas (A Metaphysical Story), How Tom Bellamy won My Lord Hertford’s Wager (An Olden-Time Sporting Story), The White Priest (A Ghost Story), Whose was the Guilt? (The Story of a Social Problem), The Dying Professor (A True Story), The Two Brothers (A Story of the Crusades). In calce, un’ampia rassegna stampa di giudizi su questa e altre opere dell’autrice, tra cui la raccolta di poesie A Cycle of Verse, recensita anche su periodici italiana. Second edition of this collection of short stories by Helene Gingold, writer, actress and playwright. A selection of Press Opinions features in the last few pages. Some foxing on first and last leaves, occasional wrinkles and signs of age, overall a fair to good copy.
