Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Near Fine. First Edition; First Printing. 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 179 pages; 1966 Farrar, Straus & Giroux. HC/DJ 1st edition, 1st printing. Snugly bound in turquoise blue quarter cloth over black paper-covered boards, spine lettered in gilt. Boards embossed with a stylized head-and-neck design, each si…de bearing a different hair pattern for the titular "wig. " A bright, clean copy with just a trace of handling. In the original pictorial dust jacket designed by Milton Glaser (then of Push Pin Studios) , unclipped with the publisher's $3.95 issue price present on the front flap. Jacket crisp and unfaded, showing only minimal surface evidence. Wright's second novel (following The Messenger, 1963) and his best-known work, The Wig is a surreal, satirical, and darkly comic exploration of race and class in America. Its jagged narrative and biting humor drew comparisons to Ralph Ellison and Ishmael Reed, and it remains a landmark of Black experimental fiction of the 1960s. NF/NF.
