Descripción Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. First Edition. BS2 - A first edition (complete numberline) hardcover book SIGNED and inscribed by Mylene Dressler to previous owner on the title page in very good condition in very good dust jacket. Dust jacket has wrinkling and chipping on the top edges, light discoloration and shelf wear. Book has some chipping on the top cover edges, some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. 8.5"x5.75", 176 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. If every family has its drama, then the Buelles are enjoying a good, long run. Harry Buelle - the son of a famous, and famously demanding, southern playwright - awakes confused one morning in his bathtub. His stepmother phones him, complaining that his father has stopped taking his heart medicine. Harry has never heard her sound so tired, and with his own life in shambles he agrees to join his parents - and his sister Sarah and her ambitious, much younger husband - at their southern beach house retreat. At first the plan for the weekend is simply to finish the documentary Sarah has been making of their father's brilliant life and career - but their father is instead preoccupied with a wounded bird that has flown inexplicable into the house. The young filmmakers have brough a hefty supply of emotional ammunition along with their blank tape, and soon all the good-natured familial ribbing leads to uncomfortable sparring, goading, and manipulation - rubbing raw old wounds and tearing away at long-held, secret compromises. Mylène Dressler's previous novel, The Deadwood Beetle, was heralded as "haunting, demanding, and perfect," by The Christina Science Monitor, and as "splendid" by The New York Times. Now, with that same sense of poetry and precision, The Floodmakers delivers a unique, almost theatrical narrative - yet never once sacrifices the humor or humanity of its characters. Reminiscent of the plays of Tennessee Williams, The Floodmakers is the penetrating observation of a family struggling for survival in close quarters and of the dizzying tensions that boil beneath the surface. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Signed by Author. Nº de ref. del artículo: SW704BB
