Reviews
"Chatwin at his most erudite and evocative." --Robert Stone, The New York Times Book Review " Utz wonderfully depicts that sad, romantic city of Prague, the ham-handedness of East European politics, a small gallery of deftly drawn characters. Chatwin's deepening portrait of Utz is cunningly achieved. . . . It is triumphant." -- The Washington Post "Chatwin's Prague is a palpable place. . . . The modeling is deft, the color bright, and the miniature scale of the piece displays a decorative mantelpiece charm." -- The Boston Globe "Bruce Chatwin has set a story as delicate as the skyline. . . . In this mordant and suggestive story, he masters the grace, the damp, the dilapidation and the ghostly comedy of the city that produced Kafka and The Good Solider Schweik , The Golem and Don Giovanni , and the inflamed reasonableness of spring, 1968." -- Los Angeles Times

Synopsis
An elegant novel set in Prague about the possibility of freedom in an unfree state, from the acclaimed author of The Songlines and In Patagonia Utz collects Meissen porcelain with a passion. His collection, which he has protected and enlarged through both World War II and Czechoslovakia's years of Stalinism, numbers more than 1,000 pieces, all crammed into his two-room Prague flat. Utz is allowed to leave the country each year, and although he has considered defection, he always returns. He cannot take his precious collection with him, but he cannot leave it, either. And so Utz is as much owned by his porcelain as it is owned by him, as much of a prisoner of the collection as of the Communist state. A fascinating, enigmatic man, Kaspar Utz is one of Bruce Chatwin's finest creations. And his story, as delicately cast as one of Utz's porcelain figures, is unforgettable.

- c***a (6)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Último añoCompra verificadaI bought a rare academic book that previously belonged to a prominent professor. The seller provided a very detailed description and showed in detail in the photos all traces of use of the book by the previous owner. The book was sent immediately after payment confirmation. The volume was very carefully packed in three foil envelopes. The third envelope is on the photo. Thank you! It is a pleasure to do business with you!William III And Louis XIV Essays 1680-1720by & for Mark Thomson Hardcover Book (#126538756001)
