Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. True First Edition / First Printing. A beautiful, collector-grade copy of John Irving's second novel. This 1972 Random House edition is a cornerstone for any serious collector of modern American fiction. The Story Behind the Book: A fascinating… piece of literary trivia—Irving originally intended to name this novel Love Among the Greths, based on an "Old Low Norse" poem titled Akthelt and Gunnel. He pivoted to the now-iconic title after discovering Walker Percy's Love Among the Ruins. Condition: The book is in Very Good condition—internally clean, tight, and square. There is slight, age-appropriate foxing to the top edge of the text block, but the pages remain crisp. Dust Jacket: Very Good; unclipped and vibrant. It shows a single crease to the front flap but is otherwise a sharp, well-preserved example of the original jacket art. Jacket design by Hal Seigal. Attributes: 365 pages. Stated "First Edition" on the copyright page. A crisp, well-preserved example of early Irving. [Store Location: 1.3]. Hal Seigal (illustrator).

Cloth & Boards. Zustand: Near Fine. Near Fine. First Edition, First Printing. A nice First Edition, First printing of John Irving's second book. With number line 98765432 and "First Edition" indicative of a Random House first printing. The book is in fine condition with navy blue cloth and bright yellow boards, but for touches o…f soil on the top edge and a soiled spot on the bottom edge. 365 pp. The near fine dustjacket is clipped with "6/72" on the rear flap. There is overall light yellowing to the white panels and touches of wear at the spine ends but overall complete and quite attractive, quite clean as many of the dust jackets for this edition often present with pronounced soiling to the white paper. Irving went on to write "The World According to Garp," "The Cider House Rules," and "A Prayer for Owen Meany." A nice copy of this early Irving book. Published in 1972, Irving's second novel, a non-linear, semi-autobiographical confession of Fred Trumper comedically recounting his various life failures, which the New York Times reviewed as "brutal reality and hallucination, comedy and pathos." In the collection "Anything Can Happen: Interviews with Contemporary American Novelists," Irving spoke about inspiration during the publishing of "The Water-Method Man," stating, "All the things that happened to me are fair to be used in my fictionMost autobiographical fiction is tyrannized by how much our unhappiness means to us. The unhappiness becomes an indulgence in our fictionliterature should be a sign of life rather than a celebration of death; and if a novel doesn't address itself to something of human value, I don't see much worth in it." One of Irving's most recent publications is the title "The Last Chairlift," and he's referenced his daughter, Eva, as a heroic figure who inspired the novel, stating "we need more trans women heroes.".
