Jon Fosse Signed 1st I Is Another Nobel Prize Literature Winner 2023 Septology 2

Description: A signed (to a loose publisher bookplate) 1st printing PBO of this 2020 novel from multi-award winning Norwegian author, poet and playwright Jon Fosse; this is the 2nd part of his acclaimed 'Septology' series. The conclusion 'A New Name' was shortlisted for the 2022 International Booker Prize; the first part of the series 'The Other Name ' was longlisted for the 2020 Prize. ** After years of being mentioned as a strong candidate, on 5 October 2023, Mr Fosse was named as the Winner of the 2023 Nobel Prize for Literature. He is the 4th Norwegian to have won the prize but the first for almost a century, since Sigrid Undset won in 1928. ** 'I Is Another : Septology III - V ', published on 7 October 2020 by Fitzcarraldo Editions, London, 1st edition / 1st printing, medium modern paperback original, 282 pages + copyright page at rear. Translated from the Norwegian by Damion Searls. Hand signed by Jon Fosse to a loose publisher bookplate. In fine unread condition, paperback original in the usual blue french flaps with white lettering that is standard for the 1st printings of all fiction titles released by this publisher. Light rubbing to edges and corners. ** Any signed 1st printings of Mr Fosse's works are very uncommon and are almost always to a publisher bookplate. They are now highly collectable since his prestigious Nobel Prize win. It is incredibly rare to find any example signed by him to, say, the title page ** Asle is an ageing painter and widower who lives alone on the southwest coast of Norway. His only friends are his neighbour, Åsleik, a traditional fisherman-farmer, and Beyer, a gallerist who lives in the city. There, in Bjørgvin, lives another Asle, also a painter but lonely and consumed by alcohol. Asle and Asle are doppelgängers – two versions of the same person, two versions of the same life, both grappling with existential questions. In this second instalment of Jon Fosse’s Septology, the two Asles meet for the first time in their youth. They look strangely alike, dress identically, and both want to be painters. At art school in Bjørgvin, Asle meets and falls in love with his future wife, Ales. Written in melodious and hypnotic ‘slow prose’, I is Another: Septology III-V is an exquisite metaphysical novel about love, art, God, friendship, and the passage of time.
