Prose Francine
PRIMITIVE PEOPLE: A NOVEL
Harper Perennial 2001. Paperback. Near Fine. Having acquired an audience of discerning readers with such novels as House hold Saints and Bigfoot Dreams Prose comes into her own with this acerbic comedy of manners. Both deliciously wicked and poignant it is a fable of our times. Through the eyes of her protagonist Simone an illegal immigrant from Haiti who becomes a "caregiver" to the children of unforgivably self- absorbed parents Prose illuminates some of the ludicrous aspects of our cu lture and of the perennial battle between the sexes. Morbidly depressed 10- year-old George and six-year-old sister Maisie are the casualties of their parents' failed marriage. Their brittle bubblehead mother Rosemary a scul ptress of absolutely no talent has been abandoned and left nearly penniles s by their father charismatic womanizer Geoffrey and she is pathetically trying to cope with life in the derelict Porter family mansion in upstate N ew York. Although she is bewildered by American culture Simone becomes the one stable element in the household winning the children's trust and Rose mary's patronizing affection. As she meets Geoffrey Rosemary's friends and other members of the community Simone sees dark links between her violenc e-haunted homeland and the outwardly serene community of Hudson ' s Landing . Observing the complex betrayals of which the children are ultimate victim s Simone is herself betrayed by her need for emotional connection. Prose h as a ventriloquist's skill in capturing contemporary jargon and a laser eye for describing the people who spout it. She offers hilarious sendups of ma ll culture and of pretentious empty socialites seen here in a stable at t. Harper Perennial paperback

There is a "SIGNED COPY" sticker on the jacket's front panel which will be neatly removed upon buyer's request. From the Dust Jacket: "Long before there were creative-writing workshops and degrees how did aspiring writers learn to write By reading the work of their predecessors and contemporaries says Francine Prose. In READING LIKE A WRITER Prose invites you to sit by her side and take a guided tour of the tools and the tricks of the masters. She reads the work of the very best writers -- Dostoyevsky Flaubert Kafka Austen Dickens Woolf Chekhov -- and discovers why their work has endured. She takes pleasure in the long and magnificent sentences of Philip Roth and the breathtaking paragraphs of Isaac Babel; she is deeply moved by the brilliant characterization in George Eliot's MIDDLEMARCH. She looks to John Le Carr� for a lesson in how to advance plot through dialogue to Flannery O'Connor for the cunning use of the telling detail and to James Joyce and Katherine Mansfield for clever examples of how to employ gesture to create character. She cautions readers to slow down and pay attention to words the raw material out of which literature is crafted. Written with passion humor and wisdom READING LIKE A WRITER will inspire readers to return to literature with a fresh eye and an eager heart.". Signed by the Author signature only. Later printing. Hardcover. Near Fine condition/Near Fine dust jacket. 8vo. xii 275pp. HarperCollins Publishers Hardcover
