The Iron Wolf and Other Stories
Allen Lane UK 1980. First Edition. Hardcover. Good/Good. Hardcover. 142 pages. PUBLISHING DETAILS: Allen Lane UK 1980. First Edition. This is the first UK edition. CONDITION: The book itself is in good condition and comes in good dust jacket. More specifically: Edges of boards have superficial wear. Dust jacket has light creasing and superficial rubbing. Edges of dust jacket have light bumping. Dust jacket is unclipped. Pages are reasonably tanned. ABOUT THIS BOOK: In this volume Richard Adams has collected together nineteen enchanting folk-tales from almost as many parts of the world - from Europe to China and from Polynesia to the Arctic Circle. Each has a special magic an aura that is sometimes beautiful and fascinating sombre and frightening or exciting and colourful. But what unites all these stories is the essential quality of folk-lore something that transcends the boundaries of nations of custom and time that gives them their permanence and universality of appeal. 'Authors need folk-tales' Richard Adams says 'in the same way as composers need folk-song. They're the headspring of the narrator's art where the story stands forth at its simple irreducible best. They don't date any more than dreams for they are the collective dreams of humanity.' In order to preserve as far as possible the immediacy and directness of authentic folk story-telling each of the nineteen tales is presented as being told by an imagined narrator to one or more hearers at a particular time and place sometimes past sometimes present. However the reader is never told the identity either of the teller or his hearers but is left free to infer both them and the occasion solely from the narrator's own words. This original technique adds a novel dash of piquancy to this fine collection. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Science Fiction & Fantasy; ISBN: 071391341X. ISBN/EAN: 9780713913415.
