Price: US$50.00 + shipping
Condition: Very Good
Description: 442 pages. Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's brown pebbled cloth with yellow lettering to spine and cover in original pictorial jacket. First editor. A Story Tellers Story is a memoir as such, but anyone who has read anything by Anderson will realise that we arent necessarily going to get a straightforward autobiography. Anderson was an author that excelled in character studies and short stories; his style is almost impressionistic, where objective details can get a bit blurred or fuzzy; but he really excels in getting inside the characters heads. Even when he tried to write longer works Anderson seemed unable to stop it from fragmenting into tales and anecdotes, and Im guessing that for many people this is one aspect of his style that they find annoying. Winesburg, Ohio is the best example of this as sometimes its described as a novel and other times as a collection of short stories. Likewise A Story Tellers Story soon fragments into episodic tales and recollections from his childhood to the period when he was writing the book. He starts to tell tales from different periods as well and it becomes a glorious, jumbled-up mess of memoir, essay and character studies. Condition: Light edge wear. Jacket reinforced with cozo, spine ends chipped with loss, edge wear with closed tears, spine age toned else a very good copy in like jacket.

Description: First edition. Light contemporary name in pencil ("H.L. Rounds"), else fine in an attractive, very good dustwrapper with the spine tanned. Signed by the author. Anderson's first of three autobiographies. Aside from the towering achievement of Anderson's short stories, one of his greatest feats was to move American literature into the modern age by breaking down the boundaries between fiction and autobiography. It was said his fiction was mostly autobiography and his autobiographies were mostly fiction. It was in this volume that the process became most evident. *Johnson High Spot of American Literature.*.
