McCarthy, Cormac. Cities of the Plains; The Border Trilogy, Volume Three. B.E. Trice, New Orleans, 1998.

Price: US$1750.00 + shipping

Condition: Fine

Description: One of 300 copies, octavo size, signed by Cormac McCarthy, in publisher's slipcase. Cormac McCarthy (born Charles Joseph McCarthy, Jr., in 1933), is acknowledged by many as one of the greatest contemporary American writers. His first novel, "The Orchard Keeper", won a 1966 William Faulkner Foundation Award for notable first novel; "All the Pretty Horses" would win the National Book Award in 1992, and "No Country for Old Men", conceived as a screen play (and later turned into a novel) won four Academy Awards. He would eventually author twelve novels, three short stories, five screenplays and two plays. The "Border Trilogy" begins with a quintessential coming-of-age story of two young cowboys. "All the Pretty Horses" won the U.S. National Book Award as well as the National Book Critics Circle Award. "The Crossing" is similar in that it, also, is a coming-of-age story, albeit with difference characters. McCarthy brought the two protagonists together later in their lives in this novel "Cities of the Plains", which easily stands alone as its own story. This volume one of the 300 standard versions of the special signed edition published by B.E. Trice, McCarthy's signature on the limitation page tipped into the front of the book. ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in quarter dark brown leather over marbled paper boards with gilt lettering stamped onto the spine, McCarthy's signature in black ink on the limitation page, this copy no. 249 of the 300 standard signed copies (there were also 50 deluxe signed copies). Housed in the publisher's slipcase covered with rust cloth, a facsimile of the author's signature stamped in gilt onto one side. ___CONDITION: Both the book and the slipcase fine: still in the publisher's shrink-wrap and thus unread and untouched. ___POSTAGE: International customers, please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA, ILAB, and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

McCarthy, Cormac. CITIES OF THE PLAIN. B.E. Trice, New Orleans, 1998.

Price: US$4000.00 + shipping

Description: Beautifully bound signed limited edition of the third volume of McCarthy's Border Trilogy. Following McCarthy's ALL THE PRETTY HORSES and THE CROSSING, CITIES OF THE PLAIN returns to characters John Grady and Billy Parham, struggling to make a living on a drought-stricken cattle ranch near the Southwestern border of the United States and Mexico. Critically praised, with reservations (as Sara Mosle noted in THE NEW YORK TIMES, "the most complex and sympathetic female character in the trilogy may be a wolf"), McCarthy's bleakness of vision and his cascade of mythic imagery still hold great power. A remarkably beautiful and untouched copy of this major work. 8.25'' x 5.5''. Original three-quarter gilt-stamped brown leather with marbled boards. Brown endpapers. In original gilt-stamped brown cloth slipcase. 291, [3] pages. No. 34 of a limited edition of 350 copies, signed by McCarthy at colophon. Faintest bumping to lower corner of text block. Appears unread.
