New York. 1995. February 1995. Scribner. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0689121725. 271 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Carin Goldberg. keywords: Paris Exile Literature Biography Literature. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Exiled in Paris provides a compelling look at the personalities who fueled the literary and philosophical dramas of postwar Paris: James Baldwin, Alexander Trocchi, Boris Vian, Maurice Girodias, and many others. James Campbell provides a fresh look at Samuel Beckett's early career; reveals the facts behind the publication of the scandalous best-seller The Story of O; and tells the poignant story of Richard Wright's years in exile. He captures the sense of deliverance that Wright, so accustomed to daily humiliations in his own country, experienced during his sojourn on the Left Bank, where, for the first time in his life, he was treated as a great man of letters. Here, too, are all the circumstances surrounding Wright's mysterious death, which many close to him regarded as suspicious. inventory #36590 ISBN: 0689121725.
