London: Collins Harvill, 1985. Jonathan Raban's Foreign Land is a novel which extends a theme now familiar in English fiction, that of the solitary abroad in society. It has a memorable narrative force, a predictably beguiling mastery of language, and again and again strikes a rich comic vein even as it explores the sadder symptoms of English life as Raban sees them. A bright sharp-cornered book in a price-clipped dust jacket. Jacket painting by Jon Schueler: Blue Cloud snd Winter Light 1982. A very nice copy.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine.

Description:
London: Michael Joseph, 1968. This is the story of the fall of Jerusalem to the Romans and of their strange, empty victory at Masada, the last remaining strong-hold of the Jews. It is also the story of the increasing desperation of the Jews, their disillusion and despair when the expected climax of the Last Days fails to come and their faith in the Holy One is shaken. The story is woven from familiar Bibical writings and from events vouched for by historians, both Roman and Jewish, events since confirmed by the finding of archaeologists. The author has combined extensive research with a vivid, creative imagination to produce a book of religious, historical and dramatic interest mounting to the violent yet poignant finale. Red boards with gilt to spine. Wrap-around jacket illustration by Jenny Williams. A very nice copy.. First British Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine.
