1936Best.-Nr. 012361New York: Covici Friede / Sun Dial Press 1936. 1st Edition second issue. Hardcover. Very Good/Good. Very good in maroon cloth with spine unfaded except at the very tips. Top edge blue stain faded. Goldstone and Payne call this the "first edition second issue" but is more properly simply the second edition. This maroon cloth issue retains the McBride bell logo on the final page which seemed to indicate these were first issue sheets reissued with a new title page and cover. Covici Friede however made up new sheets for this edition. This book comes with a later 1938 Sun Dial dust jacket which is decidedly original to this book. Jacket has some chipping at spine head and rear corner and also soiled on rear panel. Sun Dial apparently bought out remaining stock when Covici Friede went bankrupt in 1938 and then sold them with their own dust jackets. Sun Dial later went on to release other later reprints of this book. Covici Friede / Sun Dial Press hardcover

Best.-Nr. 9788577990467BEST BOLSO. new. "Obra-prima de John Steinbeck em edi��o de bolso. As vinhas da ira � o cl�ssico que valeu o Pr�mio Pulitzer a John Steinbeck e permanece como um dos arqu�tipos da cultura norte-americana. Agraciado tamb�m com o Nobel de Literatura o autor retratou o homem moderno diante das dificuldades a pobreza e a priva��o em um universo hostil protagonizado por v�timas da competi��o e p�rias sociais. O livro � fortemente marcada pela forma pelas descri��es real�sticas e pela reflex�o sobre o mito do para�so americano. As vinhas da ira representa o confronto entre indiv�duo e sociedade atrav�s da epopeia da fam�lia Joad expulsa pela seca dos campos de algod�o de Oklahoma para tentar a sobreviv�ncia como boias-frias nas planta��es de frutas do Vale de Salinas na Calif�rnia. Ao mesmo tempo em que denuncia os dramas e flagelos de um pa�s debilitado pela Grande Depress�o dos anos 30 Steinbeck defende o conceito de que o indiv�duo isolado nada vale e a sobreviv�ncia s� � poss�vel quando existe solidariedade entre os semelhantes. Vencedor de dois Oscar a adapta��o para o cinema foi feita por John Ford em 1940 com Henry Fonda no papel de Tom Joad. "" BEST BOLSO unknown
