Description: First impression of the first UK edition, published in 1958, the first of three volumes of Collected Stories that were each published separately. ***Near fine in blue cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. Gilt still quite bright. Page block edges extremely clean, even the top edge. Top and tail of spine slightly bumped. Corners sharp, with just a very slight crease to the top corner of the front board. Small light stain to the front board, and a very small light stain on the spine. Spine tight with just a very slight lean. Some offsetting to the endpapers. No internal inscriptions or marks. ***In a very good dustwrapper, which retains the publisher's price of 15s net. The dustwrapper is complete, without any significant chips or tears. Extremities of dustwrapper rubbed, nicked and creased, but nice and clean [see scans]. ***205 mm x140 mm. 320 pages. ***As well as the title story, the book includes fourteen other stories as follows: "Shingles for the Lord", "The Tall Men", "A Bear Hunt", "Two Soldiers", "Shall Not Perish", "Centaur in Brass", "Mule in the Yard", "That Will Be Fine", "A Courtship", "Pennsylvania Station", "Artist at Home", "The Brooch", "My Grandmother Milliard and General Bedford Forrest and The Battle of Harrykin Creek" and "Golden Land". ***'This is the first of a three-volume edition of Mr. Faulkner's short stories. It contains fifteen tales never before published in this country except in the Collected Stories, which is out of print. The Nobel Prize-winner for 1949, Mr. Faulkner is one of the few great imaginative writers now living. His short stories won the American National Book Award for the most distinguished work of fiction published in 1950. The Times Literary Supplement spoke of "the passionate dramatic sense and the conception of humanity's grandeur that informs the tales" and the Sunday Times reviewer wrote, "Faulkner, for me, still holds dominion over swamp and cotton gin, canebrake and barn. His people - are Faulkner to the last fibre. It is a magnificent exhibition of virtuosity."' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper). ***William Faulkner was the Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1949. ***A true first impression of the first UK edition, complete in the original dustwrapper designed by Stanley Hickson, in nice collectable condition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
