DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in 1/2 red cloth and paper covered cloth with titles present to the spine. Boards have wear present to the extremities of the boards. Mark present to the FFEP Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid This 1954 novel is little-known and what few words have been said about it are mixed. Powell was, at her best, an astute writer and comic genius. Both of these traits are in evidence here, in her second-to-last book. She was struggling with progressive health problems and changing society by this point, so her writing became quicker-paced, the scenes less dense, the focus on fewer characters. These weren't necessarily flaws. Cage comes off more effectively than her next, and last, novel. Both concern coming-of-age for naive rural folk navigating a city. Unlike her final novel covering a young buck in comic Manhattan, Cage follows a romantic maiden as the blinders come off in Paris. What is initially frustrating about the novel's ambiguity in the beginning is actually fundamental to the plot, as we and the heroine learn what each person's role was to the other, both intended and unwitting. Here Powell is able to employ her remarkable character insights, particularly in the way parents bury their unfulfilled longings in the control of their children. This has a very late-50s feel, not in the cliched sense, and is somewhat unusual in Powell's body of work. It was not selected for revival publication in the 90s the way most of her other novels were-- this is too bad, because it's a worthy, quick read, serious in intention but enjoyable, sturdy enough to have survived extensive editorial cuts by the publishing house. Definitely recommended for Powell readers if they can locate a copy. E-384; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 306 pages.
