Carnival

Uncorrected Proof. 8vo. Pp. [vi], 295, [1 (blank)]. Pink printed wraps.

Stamped "Proof/ Damaged" to half-title, else Fine.

Author's third novel. A reworking of Ernest Hemingway's novel The Sun Also Rises (1926). Short-listed for the Commonwealth Writers' Prize for the Caribbean and Canadian region, a feat he had already achieved in 1992 for his first book, Divina Trace.

"Robert Antoni has taken the plot of Ernest Hemingway's novel The Sun Also Rises, about Anglo-American expats in Paris and Spain in the 1920s, and transplanted it to the present-day Americas... Carnival is vividly written, with a powerful air of thwarted erotic energy." –Financial Times
