Softcover. Condition: Very Good Condition. First Edition. An advance copy (with s.p. on the rear cover) of the limited edition (though not on Marais paper) with plain covers and an interview and portrait of Wright. Lacking a glassine wrapper, but likely to have never had one. Light wear and age toning, inscribed by Wright to Françoise Sagan and additionally signed by the translator Helen Bokanowski. Slight browning to covers, but an attractive copy and a terrific association of two giants of 20th century literature. With an announcement for the book, a bit worn, laid in. Wright lived in Paris from 1946 until his death in late 1960 - he became in French citizen in 1947. Published as The Long Dream in 1958, it is often viewed as the final book in the Native Son, Black Boy sequence. It traces the life of Fishbelly, the son of a Mississippi mortician in the Jim Crow South. Size: Octavo (8vo). Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo.
