Hardcover. First Printing. 1988., Hamish Hamilton, London, 1988, 5.5, Hamish Hamilton, publishers, London 1988 hardcover, 6¼" x 9½" (x 2" thick), with dust jacket VERY GOOD book in VERY GOOD unclipped dust jacket Nora Barnacle was twenty years old and penniless when she walked alone to the night ferry from Dublin to England. She had not told her family nor her employer she was going. But in 1904, when she ran off with James Joyce, she was an uninhibited young woman who didn't give a damn. Without her, there may not have been a 'Ulysses' and certainly not a Molly Bloom (Joyce based all his main female literary characters upon her). She protected Joyce as much as she inspired him. Here is the first full-length biography of Nora, packed with new information on her early life and loves, and her life after Joyce's death. Packed book weighs 1½ kilos (3¼ lbs), slightly higher shipping will apply- we will quote first., Hamish Hamilton, publishers, London, 1988, 3, UK,8vo HB+dw/dj,1st edn.FINE+/FINE.No owner inscrptn and no price-clip to dw/dj.Bright,crisp,clean,purple/mauve background with colour photographic upper panel of dw/dj,with purple/mauve,b/w and gilt lettering; with negligible shelf-ear and creasing to edges and corners - no nicks or tears present and some inevitable,but light,superficial scoring/indentation - without affecting the board beneath - to rear panel.Top+fore-edges bright and clean; contents bright,tight,clean - vitrually pristine - no dog-ear reading creases to any pages' corners - appears unread.Bright,crisp,clean,sharp-cornered,publisher's original plain dark blue cloth boards with bright,crisp,blocked fluorescent gilt letters to spine/backstrip and immaculate facsimile contemporary advertising ephemera (her father's grocery shop and a political pamphlet of her public speaking event) illustrated endpapers.UK,8vo HB+dw/dj,1st edn,ix-xixpp+1-275pp [paginated] includes contents list/ table,acknowledgements,author's separate note and introduction,12 chapters,16pp contemporary b/w biographical photographs in 2 blocks of 8pp apiece,between pp76/7 and pp188/9 respectively, notes,a bibliography and an index.Plus [unpaginated] half-title+title pages,a dedication,prose/quotation extract from a previous book of hers ('Path to Power'), and 8pp blanks at rear. Who is Margaret Thatcher? Her influence on politics is well documented - not least by Lady Thatcher herself.What few have attempted before award-winning biographer Brenda Maddox,is to present the personal story of the woman who has been described as 'the most significant Englishwoman since Elizabeth I'. What kind of person was she that she could overcome her background,the snobbery of Oxford University and then of the Conservative Party? Brenda Maddox's achievement is to show how the Iron Lady created herself,with the assistance of both parents and her husband. Combining new research undertaken by production company Brook Lapping for the ITV1 series MAGGIE with her own analysis, Brenda Maddox traces the life of the grocer's daughter from Grantham who became the most successful Conservative Prime Minister of the 20thC.Unprecedented access to people who have known her throughout her life (some who have never spoken before) enables the author to tell the personal story of a public life. Brenda Maddox is an award-winning biographer whose work has been translated into ten languages.She has written biographies on Nora Joyce,D. H. Lawrence, on the married life of W. B. Yeats,and most recently on Rosalind Franklin: The Dark Lady of DNA.She is Home Affairs Editor on the 'Economist' (then 2003).
