Description: PILGRIMS IN A FOREIGN LAND: Tales of the Welsh Author: Evans, Caradoc Title: PILGRIMS IN A FOREIGN LAND: Tales of the Welsh Publication: London: Andrew Dakers Limited, 1942 Edition: First Edition Description: First Edition. Hardcover. A collection of seventeen short stories largely concerned with the lives of Welsh country folk. Best known for My People (1915), a short story collection often compared to Sherwood Anderson's Winesburg, Ohio and James Joyce's Dubliners, the Welsh writer Caradoc Evans (1878-1945) wished to shock the Welsh out of their complacency and smugness by contrasting the pieties of non-conformist Christianity with the brutal realities of poverty, meanness, and hypocrisy he had personally experienced. He was an important influence on the early and more surreal writing of Dylan Thomas. Small octavo. Original blue cloth binding, with dark blue titles. Some very mild wear and toning along the extremities of the dust jacket; else very good or better. Very good / Very good.
