My copy is flat-signed on the front free end paper. This book was his debut novel and it made the New York Times Best 100 books of the Year list when it was first published in 1982 when the author was 42 years old. He is now 76 years old and has written 12 novels along with 14 plays. My copy is a Second Printing. I've provided photos of the book itself. You can see there's a little discoloration of the black on the spine and adjacent to the spine on the front cover. There one light spot of soiling (visible only under direct light) near the bottom edge of the yellow part of the front cover. The red lettering on the spine is very bright. There isn't much in the way of wear, just a tiny indent on the top edge of the front cover. The book is also square and tight and very solidly bound. And the pages are very, very clean (I saw only one speck sized spot on the top white margin of page). They are also in excellent condition, very bright, without any creases or dogeared corners, and no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. There aren't any markings or attachments. You can see the dust jacket in the first few photographs. It is NOT price-clipped. It has small imperfections, a little soiling, a 1/4 inch tear off the rear top edge, a 1/8th inch tear off the bottom edge between the rear cover and flap. There's a light scratch, a couple of scuffs. The dust jacket will be fitted with a protective cover. From The New York Times Book Review: 'The Wedding Guest is a splendid first novel. Mr. Wiltse writes like an angel. He is remorselessly skillful in capturing and holding are complete and breathless attention. He has taken formula fiction and thrown away the formula.'.
