NO RESERVE García Márquez Gabriel. El general en su laberinto. Madrid: Mondadori España, 1989. Dedica autografa dell'autore.(mm 212x135). Pagine 286, [2] di cui una con carta geografica. Legatura in tutta tela rossa con camicia editoriale illustrata a colori da un dipinto di A.G.S., titoli in oro al dorso. Esemplare in buono stato di conservazione, camicia editoriale appena sgualcita ai bordi. Al recto della sguardia anteriore firma di possesso in inchiostro blu e annotazioni a lapis; a p. 7, sotto la dedica a stampa, dedica manoscritta dell'autore in inchiostro nero: 'Para Humberto otra vez'; al verso della sguardia posteriore timbro in inchiostro rosso del Registro Nacional de Bienes Culturales República de Cuba.Prima edizione in lingua originale, con firma dell'autore, uscita in Spagna in contemporanea con le prime edizioni centro e sudamericane. L'opera racconta, in forma romanzata, gli ultimi anni di vita di Simón Bolivar (1783-1830), l'eroico generale guida della lotta di Perù, Bolivia, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador e Panama verso l'indipendenza dal dominio spagnolo. Marquez si sofferma però, più che sulla gloria e sulle vittorie di Bolivar, sulle disillusioni e sulle sconfitte, evidenziando gli aspetti più intimi dell'esistenza di un uomo che visse amori e passioni con la stessa forza ideologica della sua impresa militare. Il labirinto del titolo, quello in cui il generale morirà in solitudine, è quello formato dai ricordi, immagini sbiadite di un grande sogno di unità nazionale tradito dagli interessi della politica e del potere. (212x135 mm). 286, [2] pages, of which one is illustrated with a map. Publisher's red cloth, with colour illustrated dust jacket, from a painting by A.G.S. Spine with title lettered in gilt.

Presentation copy of the first edition in original language, simultaneously issued in Spain, Central and South America. The work narrates the final years of life of General Simón Bolivar (1783-1830), the heroic and legendary liberator of Perù, Bolivia, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, and Panama. García Márquez revisites Bolívar's battles, victories, and former glory, wandering in a labyrinth of memories, unsatisfied desires, and regrets.

Avec une lettre de monsieur ***, sur l’etat présent de la Moscovie. Amsterdam, Chez Jean-Louis de Lorme, 1699 "Brand was the secretary to Evert Ysbrandszoon Ides' embassy from the Russian Czar to Peking of 1693-95. His [book] is valuable not only for its description of the route and the Siberian tribes he encountered along the way, but especially for his vivid account of the embassy's experiences in China, his description of the Great Wall and Chinese frontier settlements, and his report of the embassy's reception in Peking. Brand includes a brief general description of China, which appears to have been taken from standard published works. His eyewitness reports of the temples he visited, the dust on Peking streets, the negotiations with Chinese officials, the official banquets he attended, and so forth, are his most important contributions to Europe's knowledge of Asia." (Lach). Originally published in German the previous year, shortly followed by an English translation.
