“Out there, in the open desert, men can walk for days without passing a single house, seeing a well, for the desert is so vast that no one can know it all": First American Edition of Desert Signed by Nobel Prize-Winning Author J.M.G. Le Clezio
First American edition of what many consider the author's breakthrough novel. Octavo, original boards. Signed by J.M.G. Le Clezio on the title page. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Ghost. Translated from the French by C. Dickson.
In its citation, The Nobel Committee singled out "Desert", "This work contains magnificent images of a lost culture in the North African desert, contrasted with a depiction of Europe seen through the eyes of unwanted immigrants. The main character is a utopian antithesis to the ugliness and brutality of European society."
