Wyndham Lewis – The Revenge For Love
Only 1 left in stock
$15.00
Published in the shadow of the Spanish Civil War, “The Revenge for Love” is a political thriller attacking the fraudulence and feeble-mindedness of life in the Britain of the 1930s. A brilliant satire on a world that has lost its sense of self and been seduced by the appeal of Communism, it is one of a handful of books (it could be compared to Orwell’s “Coming Up for Air” or Koestler’s “Darkness at Noon”) which defined a particular mood and to today’s audience gives an unparalleled sense of how Europe turned toxic on the eve of the Second World War. A major statement by a great artist and writer “The Revenge for Love” now deserves a new generation of readers and is the perfect introduction to Lewis’ work.
Book is in Very Good condition and shows light general wear. There may be slight shelfwear to edges and wraps, however binding will be fully intact and most wear will be superficial. *Image in the listing is stock. There may be variation in the actual product.
