The Girl Who Trod on a Loaf Davis, Kathryn
Very Good.
Hardcover. Stated 1st edition hardcover with dustjacket 1993 Knopf. Light edgewear to jacket; PRICE CLIPPED from flap. Superclean; no marks; pages bright; binding tight. 400 pages. Cover art by noted photographer Arthur Tress. Language: English. 'Davis's second novel is as lyrically intense as Labrador (1988) and is also set in a cold, remote landscape--heightening the operatic passions of this dense, fabulistic invention. A magical evocation of Hawthorne, Dinesen, and Stephen Millhauser, this imaginary biography of a Danish lesbian composer has all the intrigue of a New England gothic romance. Helle Ten Brix--born at the turn of the century and famous for her unusual life and art--ends up living in upstate New York, where she becomes an integral part of the narrator's life. Frances Thorn is a waitress with twin daughters conceived in rape, who was on this account disowned by her wealthy parents. ... Though Helle leaves most of her estate to Frances's daughters, she leaves to Frances, a former Juilliard student, her last unfinished opera. ... Artifice and reality clash, then merge, in this strange and visionary novel.'--Kirkus Reviews, 1993. Keywords: fiction, contemporary, 1990s, Nineties.
