(no dust jacket) [a good sound copy, light shelfwear, gilt spine lettering a little dulled, some spotting/foxing on fore-edge, light staining to rear endpapers]. (color frontispiece) Polish novel in translation, the first of this Nobel Prize-winning author's works to be published in English. (His Nobel still lay slightly in the future; it was received in 1924, the year before his death, for his epic 4-volume novel "Chlopi" ("The Peasants"), published between 1904 and 1909.) The novel, which tells the story of its heroine, Janina, and the provincial theatre company of which she is a member, was actually an early work of the author's; his second novel, it was originally published in 1896 as "Komediantka" ("The Deceiver").
