The Dean's December is a tale of two cities, Chicago, Illinois and Bucharest, Rumania, a tale of East and West. It is also the story of a double crisis in the life of Albert Corde. Corde, the Dean, is not a real academic, this is anything but a campus novel, but a newspaperman who returned to his hometown to be Professor of Journalism and, eventually, Dean of Students. He is not a skillful administrator, far from it. Saul Bellow is a winner of the Nobel prize in Literature, in addition to three National Book Awards for fiction and a Pulitzer Prize. .

Condition: Very Good

Description: DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. MACCHIETTE/FIORITURE SPARSE, LIEVE BRUNITURA, LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO. INTEGRO. Il dicembre del professor Corde (in originale The Dean's December) è un romanzo di Saul Bellow, pubblicato nel 1982. È il primo romanzo scritto dopo che l'autore vinse il Premio Nobel per la Letteratura nel 1976. Ambientato a Chicago e a Bucarest, racconta la storia della crisi del protagonista, Albert Corde, professore universitario che accompagna la moglie astrofisica in un viaggio nella per lei natia Romania. Qui ha a che fare con la morte della suocera e con il regime totalitario dei paesi del blocco orientale, e ancora di più, con la propria e altrui condizione umana e con il significato da dare alla vita. Il libro ebbe per lo più critiche negative, a parte qualche eccezione (come Salman Rushdie che lo considerò "scritto molto bene"). John Updike scrisse su "The New Yorker" che "la cosa buona del libro è che è di Saul Bellow, quella cattiva è che è su Saul Bellow, considerando il protagonista troppo vicino al suo autore e alle sue provocazioni. Nonostante le critiche, però, il libro vendette molto.

Description: The eleventh book by Bellow, a Noble and Pulitzer Prize winner and winner of three National Book Awards, holds up well compared to his previous work. Dean Albert Corde, in Bucharest to support his wife, whose mother is dying, and in Chicago, where his involvement in the trial of two black men accused of murdering a white student has embarrassed both him and his college, is learning that the hard side of life and death in two radically different societies is not so different after all. Green cloth boards and text are clean, unmarked, tight and square; white dustjacket shows very minimal surface or edgewear, soiling or yellowing, no tears or chipping, not price-clipped. A very collectable copy.

Matching maroon cloth slipcase. Printed on archival stock paper in the United States to the highest standards. In protective plastic DJ, as issued. Presents, in its Limited Edition format, Saul Bellow's "The Dean's December". His autobiographical novel, as indeed everything Bellow ever wrote was profoundly autobiographical. "Albert Corde is a professor of journalism and dean of students at a Chicago university. He and his wife, Minna, travel to Bucharest, Romania, where Minna's mother has suffered a stroke. As Corde tries to adapt to life in his mother-in-law's small apartment and cope with her relations and friends, news filters through of problems he left behind in Chicago: One of his students has been murdered, and a series of articles he is writing offends powerful and influential Chicagoans he had thought of as friends. Gradually it becomes clear that Corde's trip abroad is more than a brief interlude in a calm and orderly life, and that nothing will ever be the same again" (Publisher's blurb). "For the human understanding and subtle analysis of contemporary culture that are combined in his work" (Nobel Prize Citation). An absolute "must-have" title for Saul Bellow collectors. This is a copy of the Limited Slipcased Edition of 500 numbered and signed copies, indicated/numbered as such on the Front Limitation Page. It is very prominently and beautifully signed in black fountain pen by Saul Bellow. This title is a great novel.

Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1976. Winner of The National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Literature in 1990. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine collectible copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER SAUL BELLOW TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0060148497.
