Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott, (1963). First edition. Debut novel of the notoriously reclusive postmodernist writer. 8vo lavender cloth with blind-stamped "V" design on front board and silver-stamped lettering to spine; top edge black; 492 pp. Hint of fading to edges of boards most noticeably at head of spine, spine subtly toned with faint shadow of a "V" below publisher's name (presume due to sunning through original jacket), otherwise fine in near fine, supplied dust jacket with just a touch of rubbing to upper and lower folds and few tiny tears. Increasingly scarce in a nice, bright dust jacket such as this one.

Straight, tight and clean with no wear or markings in bright, pictorial card covers, no dustjacket as issued. The pieces in this collection, written between 1956 and 1961 and including short fiction, a radio play, and a stunning early novel, offer startling insights into Cohens imagination and creative process. Cohen explores themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire in all its sacred and profane dimensions to longing, whether for love, family, freedom, or transcendence.

When he comes to describe Jerusalem he makes this remarkable statement; Do not set out...resolved to make discoveries. There is not a foot of ground that has not been already scrutinized by a thousand eyes as keen as yours, and the old adage, "If new not true," may be applied to Jerusalem and her monuments with more propriety than to any other place on earth...." - Introduction from Poet and Peasant: A… Read More
