Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good+ dj. Illustrated by (dj design) Ruth Collet (illustrator). 1st U.K. edition. [nice tight copy with some foxing on the top edge of the text block but no other significant wear; the jacket is lightly edgeworn and a bit soiled, with some teensy bits of paper loss from several corners]. McCullers's second play, about "torn and twisted family relationships in rural New York State," more specifically a married woman's "discovery (in the process of discovering herself) that sexual passion, which had held her marriage together previously, is not enough." The play was a bit of a flop on Broadway, running just 45 performances in late 1957. Per Wikipedia, McCullers drew upon her own traumatic experiences to inform the play, including her own suicide attempt in 1948 and the successful suicide of her husband in 1953.

More than 1.7 million copies have been sold, thanks to its universal message of aging as a natural gift of life. Winner of the American Booksellers Book of the Year Honors Award (1991), and two Benjamin Franklin Awards: for design and content, literature (1988), and for excellence and innovation in marketing, literature (1992), When I Am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple has been applauded for its honest and inspiring approach to the much neglected topic of aging. When I Am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple has created a network of support and encouragement: the sixty-plus men and women whose work is included, the readers who have taken the time to share how the book has touched their lives, and the booksellers who have so graciously recommended it to buyers. Stories and poems such as Warning, Like Mother, Like Daughter, Love at Fifty, Near Places, Far Places, and Dear Paul Newman tell of the endearing moments of joy -- and passion -- to be found in the rich and varied world of midlife and beyond. This award-winning anthology has earned a word-of-mouth popularity because, as the Los Angeles Times said, the time is ripe for such a message. ; Contents: Warning / Jenny Joseph -- Sitty Victory / Vicky Salloum -- Grandma sits down / Rick Kempa -- Aunt Marie at 99 / Tom Benediktsson -- Here, take my words / Karen Brodine -- The trouble was meals / Elizabeth Bennett -- Like mother, like daughter / Susan S.
