George Ryga Hungry Hills
Longmans 1963 Hardcover Like New
"'Hardcover, Like New, clean, tight, unmarked, first edition, 5 1/2'' x 8 1/4'', Brown cloth covers with black titles on spine, no cover wear, some spotting of top page edges, dj clean and unmarked without wear, 180 pages. .. ''Although this powerful first novel is set in the Alberta foothills, it takes the reader into unknown country - an arid region created and peopled with unerring realism by a brilliant new writer. The story of young Mandolin's return to the only home he has known and his struggle to extricate himself from the web of futility and sorrow which he discovers to be his heritage, by fighting evil with evil, would be devastating in its starkness were it not for this young author's penetrating sympathy. His skilled depiction of character, his withering scorn of brutality and small-mindedness, his ability to stir the heart, turn this tragic tale into a most moving experience.'' (from dj front flap)'' ID: mon0000018591"
