About this product
Product Information
Disaffected, bored with his career at the French Colonial Ministry (where he has copied out birth and death certificates for eight years), and disgusted by a mistress whose vapid optimism arouses his most violent misogyny, the narrator finds himself at the point of complete breakdown while vacationing in Florence. After leaving his mistress and the Ministry behind forever, he joins the crew of The Gibraltar, a yacht captained by Anna, a beautiful American in perpetual search of her sometime lover, a young man known only as the Sailor from Gibraltar.''

Reviews
"It's not a book to rush through. It's a book to be savored while drinking cognac and smoking pretentious cigarettes ... Whether [it's] a lost love or a reason not to go home again, Duras captures the longing that infects her 'haracters -- and all of us from time to time -- with elegant prose and a story that will set you blissfully adrift."--Jessa Crispin, NPR "Despite the novel's dizzying pace, Volpi never loses sight of his characters, and it is their richness that makes "Season of Ash" a tour de force. Fans of Roberto Bolano, Thomas Pynchon and even Leo Tolstoy would do well to add this novel to their reading lists."--Rebecca Oppenheimer, The Howard County Times "Jorge Volpi's Season of Ash is the kind of novel that reminds me why I read novels in the first place, but it's also the kind that makes me wonder why I bother to write ... Volpi is a genius, that you have to buy this book, and that he'll end up with the Nobel Prize in Literature if there is any justice in the world ... Translating genius requires itself a certain genius. [Alfred] MacAdam is already well-lauded for his work as a translator, but someone needs to give this man a medal for his current effort."--Okla Elliot, Inside Higher Ed

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
