Alfred A. Knopf, New York City, NY, 1998

First Edition / First Printing. Fine in Fine Dust Jacket. 752 pages. The author's account on subject. The first appearance of the title in the United States. 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 Peter Conrad's "Modern Times, Modern Places". A masterwork, a grand "processional" review of the 20th century. "The single most extensive study of Modernism ever produced. Dazzlingly comprehensive in range" (Times Literary Supplement). An indispensable book for every reader who desires a rewarding and illuminating critique of the tumultuous 20th century, this is widely regarded as Conrad's magnum opus. An absolute "must-have" title for Peter Conrad collectors. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few copies of the First American 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 most brilliant intellectual/writers of our time. A fine copy. . ISBN 037540113X.
