Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Wikstrom, Karin (illustrator). Limited Edition. One of 260 copies, folio size, 60 pp., signed by Wallace Stegner and Karin Wikstrom. John Steinbeck (1902-1968), considered "a giant of American letters", was best known for his portrayals of families in California, often exploring themes of alienation and injustice through "everyman" characters (n. b., info from Wikipedia). "Flight" is a short story, originally published in the collection "The Long Valley", on the subject of manhood, as the protagonist Pepe strives to fill his father's place. While in town, he kills a man and must fllee, and his subsequent trials reveal that Pepe is not only "trying to live up to the foolish and romantic ideal of manhood common to his kind, but [is] one of the incarnations of Everyman pursuing the ideals that, foolish or not. . .in the end give him stature and dignity" (per the afterword). Wallace Stegner (1909-1993) provides an afterword for this edition. Stegner was often called "The Dean of Western Writers"; he was a member of the faculty at Stanford University and founded its creative writing program. The Stegner Fellowship program at Stanford was named in his honour, and he is a recipient of the Pulitzer Prize in 1972 and the U.S. National Book Award in 1977. In the afterword, Stegner analyses the themes and characters in the story, in the context of Steinbeck's other work as well as the literary movement at the time. Included in this publication by The Yolla Bolly Press are woodcuts by Swedish artist Karin Wikstrom (b. 1959), who has contributed illustrations for several other Press editions, including "The Inland Whale" by Theodora Kroeber and "Zapata" by John Steinbeck. Here, her prints evoke a pathos for the tragic fate of the characters in their pursuit of dreams and dignity. ___DESCRIPTION: Full natural linen with wrap-around tan illustration of desert landscape, white paper spine label with brown lettering, fore-edge uncut, tan endpapers, title page with orange woodcut by Karin Wikstrom, six colour woodcuts by Wikstrom tipped in throughout, orange woodcuts by Wikstrom throughout; Goudy Modern type, folio size (12 1/4" by 10 1.4"), pagination: [i-vi] 1-39 [40-42] 43-52 [53] [1 colophon], this no. 161 of 250 numbered copies (total edition of 260), signed by Wallace Stegner and Karin Wikstrom on the colophon.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Wikstrom, Karin (illustrator). Limited Edition. One of 250 copies, folio size, 57 pp., signed by Richard Olney and Karin Wikstrom, with prepublication announcement and prospectus. Karen Christenze von Blixen-Finecke (1885-1962), known by her pen name Isak Dinesen, wrote in both Danish and English, and is best known for her memoir "Out of Africa", an account of her life in Kenya on a coffee farm. Her story "Babette's Feast", written in the summer of 1949, did not appear in print until 1958, as part of a collection; it is about Babette, a French Communard who escapes France and settles in a small Norwegian fishing village, employed by two spinster sisters as their housekeeper. Unbeknownst to the sisters, Babette is a renowned Parisian chef, and she prepares a meal for the sisters and their guests which is "spiritually transforming. Babette's artistry is such that old suspicions melt away. . .and everyone at the table departs in an altered state. Dinesen and her heroine have given us a hugely entertaining fable in which bodily and spiritual appetites are satisfied, rendering irrelevent. . .the dichotomy between aesthetics and morality" (per the prospectus). Included in this publication by The Yolla Bolly Press are woodcuts by Swedish artist Karin Wikstrom (b. 1959), who has contributed illustrations for several other Press editions, including "The Inland Whale" by Theodora Kroeber and "Zapata" by John Steinbeck. Here, her playful and evocative prints create tangible visuals of the characters and setting in this moving story of rejuvenation and compassion. Richard Olney (1927-1999), American cook and food writer best known for his books on French country food, provides an afterword to the book, examining the intricacies and history of the food and wine prepared by Babette in the story. A gorgeous edition of Dinesen's fable that exhibits the humanity and spiritual connections formed through the communion of a meal. ___DESCRIPTION: Quarter navy cloth with purple and navy patterned paper boards, woodcut of a turtle printed in purple on brown paper inset on the front board, bottom edge uncut, purple endpapers, title page with turtle woodcut, nineteen woodcuts, two of which are full-page printed in three colours, by Karin Wikstrom throughout; Pegasus and Albertus types, English Somerset paper, folio size (13" by 9.25"), pagination: [i-iv] 1-51 [52] [1 colophon], one of 250 copies, this number 136, signed by Richard Olney and Karin Wikstrom on the colophon.
