first edition. NY, Viking, 1952, first edition, first printing, dust jacket. Hardcover.
This flawed masterpiece was the big book which Steinbeck waited all his life to write, it was the source for the film classic directed by Elia Kazan and which starred the legendary James Dean as Cal in his first starring film role, Goldstone & Payne A32b, Morrow 218. Bookplate of a noted Steinbeck collector, two short jacket tears internally reinforced, else near fine.

NY, Presbyterian Hospital, 1947, first edition, wrappers. Softcover.. A very scarce pamphlet written by Steinbeck about this New York hospital that apparently had served his family well, even the hospital itself doesn't own a copy, laid in loosely is a memorandum about this pamphlet signed by the hospital president, Charles P. Cooper, this is one of the more elusive of all Steinbeck "A" items, Goldstone & Payne A24a, Morrow 187, but neither record this memorandum, the whole is now housed in a custom clam-shell case. The memorandum is aged and quite brittle, but the book itself is fine.

Straight, tight and clean with no wear or markings in bright, pictorial card covers, no dustjacket as issued. The pieces in this collection, written between 1956 and 1961 and including short fiction, a radio play, and a stunning early novel, offer startling insights into Cohens imagination and creative process. Cohen explores themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire in all its sacred and profane dimensions to longing, whether for love, family, freedom, or transcendence.
