First Edition / First Printing. Fine in Fine Dust Jacket. 266 pages. The author's second novel. The first appearance of the title in English and 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 Laura Esquivel's "The Law of Love" in a felicitous English translation. A story to savor, like chocolate. Laura Esquivel, who wrote the international bestseller, "Like Water for Chocolate", has done it again with a novel that is innovative in several ways: a) it takes place three centuries in the future; b) it comes with a unique music CD consisting of folk Mexican and great operatic arias handpicked by the author to "accompany" one's reading of the novel; and c) it contains luscious full-color illustrations by the great Miguelanxo Prado. Most unusual in every respect, the Law of Love is to be both romantic and comic in order for love to last. An absolute "must-have" title for Laura Esquivel collectors. This title is now collectible. 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 finest Latin-American writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER LAURA ESQUIVEL TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). ISBN 0517706814.
