Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 192 pages. Published in 2008. Brief Biography on subject. One of Edmund White's finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only by a small independent press. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Edmund White's "Rimbaud: The Double Life of A Rebel". A succinct and original perspective on one of the founders of literary modernism: A brief biography, fittingly enough, on the briefest of literary lives. Arthur Rimbaud famously wrote two, unsurpassable masterpieces BEFORE he was twenty-one years old: "A Season In Hell" (1873) and "Illuminations" (1886), then he abandoned poetry altogether. His unique case remains proof that the point of being a writer is to write a masterpiece, not necessarily a body of work, and in Rimbaud's case, to give up writing thereafter. Edmund White's books on Genet, a massive volume, and Proust, a brief one, complete a great American writer's homage to French literature as no other "foreigner" writer has achieved. An absolute "must-have" title for Edmund White collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed in black pen-marker on the title page by Edmund White. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. Edmund White's signature on this copy is one of the most beautiful we have ever seen. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of very few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are in multiple subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award in 1994 for "Genet: A Biography". Anointed by Vladimir Nabokov as his American successor. One of the greatest writers of our time. A fine copy.
