Description:
New York: Random House,, 1942. A highly attractive copy in the first issue dust jacket First trade edition, first printing, in the first issue dust jacket, priced $2.00 and with eight titles on the rear panel. The present work and The Town (1957) "show, in their rich variety, the constant, restless urge of their author to experiment with new forms and methods" (Meriwether, p. 6). Faulkner saw Go Down, Moses not as a collection of stories but rather as a unified novel; as such, the title of subsequent printings omitted the phrase "and Other Stories". This copy, in tile red cloth, is one of numerous binding variants "bound in whatever cloth the publisher found available during a period of wartime shortages" (Petersen, Each in its Ordered Place). Octavo. Original red cloth, spine lettered in green. With dust jacket. Front free endpaper with bookseller's ticket of City Book Agency, Johannesburg. A near-fine copy, fresh and clean, in the bright dust jacket, a couple of nicks and short closed tears, a… Read More

New York: Random House, 1942. First edition, first issue. 8vo, publisher's original black cloth lettered in gilt and lined in red on the spine and upper cover, in the pictorial dustjacket. 383 pp. A very good copy, with light wear to edges of dustjacket and a 1/4" closed tear at the back spine fold, now secured. A pleasing copy. Scarce. FIRST EDITION. FAULKNER'S 6TH BOOK OF STORIES. "Ranging from the novella length of The Fire and the Hearth to the etched sharpness of the title story, Go Down, Moses, these tales bring to life, in grandeur and degradation, an unforgettable gallery of characters. They represent Faulkner in his best narrative vein as the chronicler of that section of the United States with which the whole world now identifies him.
