Slight darkening of the edges of the text block, rubbing of the external edges of the dust jacket, and the rear panel. . "This is an examination of the "myth of femininity" as revealed by a comparative study of the works of Henry James, Robert Musil and Marcel Proust. Concentrating on the creative, "transformative" effect for the various heroines under consideration have on their male counterparts, the author assesses the importance that these three writers attached to the male/female relationships in their writings. Inevitably the emphasis in each case differs considerably." -- front fold over blurb Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. We are happy to provide pictures of this book on request Quantity Available: 1.
