Said, Edward W. (Author) & Judt, Tony (Contributor) : From Oslo To Iraq And The Roadmap

Bloomsbury Publishing, London, England, 2004

ISBN 0747573433

First Edition / First Printing. Fine in Fine Dust Jacket. 323 pages. Posthumous collection of essays. One of the most important books of our time. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Edward W. Said's "From Oslo To Iraq And The Road Map". The author's final words on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict and the widening Mideast Crisis. Most of the essays were written when Edward W. Said remained active towards the end of his life in the Palestinian Movement. "These searing essays refract the reality of terrible years through a mind with extraordinary understanding, compassion, insight, and deep knowledge. They are an invaluable contribution by a truly remarkable person, in his life and work" (Noam Chomsky). Chomsky is eminently quotable because if there is anyone even more controversial than Edward W. Said, the greatest Palestinian-American intellectual of the 20th century, it is probably Noam Chomsky, the greatest Jewish-American linguist and radical political commentator of our time. The book also comes with a Foreword by another intellectual giant, Tony Judt, the late great Jewish Anglo-American political and intellectual historian. An absolute "must-have" title for Edward W. Said collectors. This title is a late-modern classic. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. One of the greatest literary and political writer/thinkers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER EDWARD W. SAID TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). ISBN 0747573433.
