Seller's Description:
First edition of Levi's masterpiece, which was later published as Survival In Auschwitz. Octavo, original blue cloth. Signed by Primo Levi on the title page. Fine in a very good dust jacket with a small chip to the rear panel. Jacket design by Wladislaw Finne. Translated by Stuart Woolf. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. Extremely rare signed. Primo Levi's 'If This Is a Man' has been described as one of the most important literary works of the twentieth century. It describes the year Levi spent as a prisoner in Auschwitz, the death camp in Nazi-occupied Poland. "He was himself a magically endearing man, the most delicately forceful enchanter I've ever known" (Philip Roth). The Times Literary Supplement proclaimed that "[i]t has the inevitability of the true work of art." Named by Modern Library as one of the 100 best non-fiction books of the twentieth century.
What an amazing book, to be able to write of such a dreadful part of history, but to communicate hope in the midst of misery is a remarkable feat. I felt so gripped by the tale and will always want to have a copy in my home.
