Invisible Man

ELLISON, Ralph

Verlag: The Modern Library, New York, 1992

First printing of the 1992 Modern Library edition. Fine in fine dust jacket. Nicely Inscribed by Ellison in a very infirm hand to the daughter of his great friend and fellow author Albert Murray: "For Michele Murray, Who I've known and loved over all the long years, thanks to Michie and Al - Sincerely, Ralphie[?] on my 80th birthday party. March 1, 1994!" Ellison's handwriting is distinctive and this is clearly his, but whether he was operating at full capacity is not clear - Ellison died six weeks later. It is possible that instead of "Ralphie" he has written "Michie" again. Along with *Native Son* and *Go Tell It On the Mountain*, one of the three mid-Century African-American novels that have entered the western canon as acknowledged classics. Winner of the National Book Award, and a *Burgess 99* title. A wonderful presentation copy, likely among the last he was to make. *Blockson 101* #86. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 422743
