Contains a loose "An Evening with Saul Bellow" pamphlet. DL consignment. Shelved Case 2. Saul Bellow was born June 10 1915 in Lachine Quebec to two Jewish Lithuanian immigrants arriving from the then Russian Empire. They moved to Chicago when he was young. Bellows rebelled against his parent's expectations by pursuing a love of writing born of a love of the Torah Shakespeare and the great Russian authors of the 1800's. Bellows wrote his first novel "Dangling Man" while serving in the merchant marines in World War II seeing it published in 1944. <br /> <br /> Bellows would write "The Adventures of Augie March" in 1953 while in teaching in Paris under a Guggenheim Fellowship. "The Adventures of Augie March" has been hailed for it's dispelling of the traditional idea of the American hero as the eponymous Augie while having many heroic qualities and every opportunity to succeed fails to do so as he has no clear goal for himself chasing an ever elusive "better fate". <br /> <br /> The novel has been named as one of the 100 best novels in the English language by "TIME" magazine and Modern Library. 1386456.

A nice collector's-quality copy of the author's third novel and winner of the National Book Award. Uncommon in the flawed though first-state jacket.<br><br><b><font color=#003366> ".<big>A</big>ugie the exuberant narrator-hero is a poor Chicago boy growing up during the Depression. His mother deserted by her husband has taken in a tough old boarder Grandma Lausch who rules the family -- slow-witted Georgie ambitious Simon super-observant Augie -- like a benevolent despot. Augie's friends set out to make their fortunes in various ways but he sees himself as chosen for a special destiny. A 'born recruit' he makes himself available for a series of occupations then proudly rejects each one as unworthy. Instead of allowing himself to be drafted he takes matters into his own hands. The choices that he makes independently are -- to say the least -- eccentric. 'Life among the Machiavellians' is the subtitle Mr. Bellow privately chooses to describe the ups and downs of Augie's unsteady life. Augie's own oddity is reflected in the companions he encounters -- plungers schemers risk-takers 'hole and corner' operators like the would-be tycoon Einhorn or the would-be siren Thea who travels with an eagle trained to hunt small creatures."</b></font><br><br> Purchase with confidence: all books gradings and descriptions are rendered the care of a genuine bibliophile.

Bellow, Saul
THE BELLAROSA CONNECTION
New York City NY: Penguin Books 1989. First Edition. First Printing. Softcover. Fine/No Dust Jacket As Issued. New York City NY: Penguin Books 1989. Softcover. Fine/None As Issued. First Edition/First Printing. 102 pages. The author's sixteenth book. One of Saul Bellow's finest achievements in late-career. The true First Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a regular first print run as a softcover original only. Presents Saul Bellow's "The Bellarosa Connection". The second novella of the trilogy that begins with "A Theft" and ends with "Something To Remember Me By". A powerfully compressed exploration of the meaning of memory. "The aging lonely and nostalgic narrator a memory specialist summons from the past the book's story-within-a-story concerning his onetime acquaintance Jewish refugee Harry Fonstein. Saved from the hands of the Nazis by an Italian underground movement - the Bellarosa Operation - spearheaded by Broadway showman Billy Rose Fonstein immigrates to America where he prospers" Publishers Weekly. An eloquent and vanished novelist of ideas Bellow delivers once again. No book of his not even a slender 102-page novella is complete without his philosophical ruminations. That is precisely why he is worth reading as a novelist why his novellas are richer than most other novels and why he will last. "For the human understanding and subtle analysis of contemporary culture that are combined in his work" The Nobel Prize Citation. An absolute "must-have" title for Saul Bellow collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Saul Bellow. It is signed directly on the page itself not on a tipped-in page. Bellow signed on top of the page making his signature even more prominent. This title is a late-modern classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean crisp and bright. Please note: The book was issued as a softcover original only. A rare signed copy thus. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1976. Winner of The National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Literature in 1990. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy.
