1946 Pray to the Earth
What Our Customers Say...
Description
Early Edition, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce, With Dustwrapper
This is the first UK edition of the work, in original publisher's brown cloth binding with the original unclipped dust wrapper. The novel was first published as a US Edition, in Boston in 1938.
Evelyn Eaton was a Canadian novelist, poet and short-story writer who was known for her early novels set in France, as well as her later novels which explored the topic of spirituality.
This particular work explores both of these topics. Pray to the Earth follows the story of Jacquier, a Provencal peasant boy who runs away from his brutal parents to the unforgiving nature of rural France. Eaton explores Jacquier's journey into finding his spirituality, love and passion in life.
Condition
In original publisher's cloth binding with the unclipped dust wrapper. Externally, excellent, with minor shelf wear and light fading to the spine. The odd spot to endpapers. Dust wrapper in very good condition, with light edgewear and the odd mark, mainly to the rear. Small closed tear to the wrap at the head of the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright and clean.
Very Good Indeed
