Hi! You're looking at a BRAND NEW and UNREAD condition book which is a definitive biography of British author E. M. FORSTER written by WENDY MOFFAT--the book is a collectible STATED FIRST EDITION and FIRST PRINTING and a HARDCOVER with the ORIGINAL DUSTJACKET and is NOT a remainder copy and NOT price-clipped, with the original $32.50 price on the upper corner of the front inner flap. This book has a tiny ding on the loewr right tip of p. 302, a small bar code sticker on the lower center of the back surface of the dustjacket, slight dings on the spine tips and slight shelfewar on the dustjacket typical of many new books and is in PERFECT shape otherwise! The book is titled A Great Unrecorded History: A New Life of E. M. Forster and it was written by E. M. FORSTER; it was published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux in 2010 and is a STATED 1st EDITION and 1st PRINTING with a publication line reading 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2.With the posthumous publication of his long-suppressed novel Maurice in 1970, E. M. Forster came out as a homosexual--though that revelation made barely a ripple in his literary reputation. As Wendy Moffat persuasively argues in A Great Unrecorded History, Forster's homosexuality was the central fact of his life. Between Wilde's imprisonment and the Stonewall riots, Forster led a long, strange, and imaginative life as a gay man. He preserved a vast archive of his private life--a history of gay experience he believed would find its audience in a happier time, a series of tantalizing observations ranging from tender same-sex relationships that lasted a lifetime to wild whipped cream orgies with dozens of nude and muscular young men. A Great Unrecorded History is a biography of the heart. Moffat's decade of detective works--including first-time interviews with Forster's friends--has resulted in the first book to integrate Forster's public and private lives. A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!Thanks for looking, and good luck if you're bidding!
