Faulkner, William. GO DOWN, MOSES And Other Stories
$25,000.00
New York: Random House, [1942]. First edition. 8vo. One of 100 numbered copies signed by the author, the lowest limitation of any of the author's signed, limited editions. Faulkner came to regard "Go Down, Moses" as a novel, though originally the stories were individually published. "For the second edition [Faulkner] rightfully eliminated the stories aspect and made the volume appear as a novel, one based on interrelated shorter fictions" -- William Faulkner: American Writer by Frederick A. Karl. Fine without dust jacket as issued. Housed in a quarter-leather cloth clamshell box. "If a writer has to rob his mother, he will not hesitate. 'The Ode On A Grecian Urn' is worth any number of old ladies". Hardcover.
