Heavily emendated typed manuscript of the short story, "The Extinguished Lights." Ten numbered pages, typewritten recto only, 8.5" x 11." Signed by Singer with "Greetings," at the top. Very good condition with light staining to margin of first two pages, and rust from an old paperclip along the top edge. Originally published in his 1980 collection, The Power of Light (which Singer notes in his inscription), The Extinguished Lights is a Hannukah story with supernatural elements set in Poland. The draft gives wonderful insight into Singer's process of shaping a story, through the many textual changes in his hand. The last lines of the draft version written out entirely by hand, align closely with the final published version, and give a poetic end to the haunting story: ".the secrets of the Torah are deeper than the ocean, higher than the sky and more delightful than all the pleasures the body could ever enjoy.".
