Item description
ILLUSION IN JAVA
by Gene Fowler
New York: Random House, (1939).
First edition, first printing (stated).
Director John Ford's copy with a gift inscription SIGNED by Gene Fowler: "To Man Against Fate John Ford, With the best, Gene Fowler/Oct. 1939." The book was published in October 1939.
Fowler weaves the folklore of the Javanese people in this "rich and tender" novel set in the Dutch colony of Java.
"An ultra-rarified book, and quite a departure for Gene Fowler, this story
of a Javanese music-maker, Ajoks, and his semi-legendary experiences,
told in the symbolistic, metaphorical idiom of the people."--Kirkus Reviews.
This is one of many interesting books we acquired from John Ford's estate.
