March, Harold Gide and the Hound of Heaven
Philadelphia University of Pennsylvania Press 1952 First Edition Hard Cover Good Good
Maroon cloth on boards. Volume is bumped at the front spine corners and lightly worn on edges. An owners name and address are on the front pastedown. Pages are tight and clean. The jacket is worn all edges, torn, scratched, chips and creases, and soiling. There are a few pieces worn away at the spine ends and the jacket has been repaired at some time, more than once, with clear tape inside and out. Now in clear cover. " You will feel - as you read about this complex, restless, widely traveled gentleman of leisure, who never crossed the Atlantic - that his writings can help us to psychic insight. Seldom in literary history has there been so paradoxical a figure. His books always had a small sale, yet in 1947 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. All but hypnotized by the Christianity into which he was born, he was branded by his rabid attackers as the Antichrist. Powerless to embrace the wife he loved more than his own llife, he succumbed time and again to the lure of homosexuality. A sharp critic of Catholicism, he spent his life in the literary confessional. An enigma both to himself and others, he exercised in his country (France) the greatest cultural influence of the modern period."
