Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. FIRST EDITION, LIMITED ISSUE. Number 111 of 250 copies, SIGNED BY FAULKNER. Faulkner's Random House publishers selected the title over Faulkner's objections; subsequent editions were published with his preferred title, If I Forget Thee Jerusalem. Petersen A19a. The Wild Palms was written during a particularly heavy drinking phase, even by Faulkner's standards; work on this book was interrupted when he suffered third-degree back burn in New York from a steam pipe while drunk. Spine slightly sunned, but still a very nice copy, better than typically found.

First Edition Signed
First British edition of the Nobel Prize-winning author's grandly inventive, heart-stopping classic novel. Octavo, original cloth. Signed by the author on the title page, "William Faulkner New York 3 March 1953." Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Rare and desirable signed with no other inscribed British edition ever appearing at auction. In this feverishly beautiful novel William Faulkner interweaves two narratives, each wholly absorbing in its own right, each subtly illuminating the other. In New Orleans in 1937, a man and a woman embark on a headlong flight into the wilderness of illicit passion, fleeing her husband and the temptations of respectability. In Mississippi ten years earlier, a convict sets forth across a flooded river, risking his own chance at freedom to rescue a pregnant woman. From these separate stories Faulkner composes a symphony of deliverance and damnation, survival and self-sacrifice, a novel in which elemental danger is juxtaposed with fatal injuries of the spirit. The Wild Palms is grandly inventive, heart-stopping in its prose, and suffused on every page with the physical presence of the country that Faulkner made his own.

Condition: About Fine. First Edition. Octavo, with burgundy quarter cloth over wood-grain papered boards. Copy 148 of two hundred fifty copies, signed by Faulkner on the limitation page. Slightest bit of chipping to edges, otherwise Fine. A clean, square and bright copy of this literary classic. Consisting of two interwoven short stories with opposing perspectives on love, grief, and sacrifice, The Wild Palms is one of Faulkner's most experimental works. "When I reached the end of what is now the first section of The Wild Palms, I realized suddenly that something was missing, it needed emphasis, something to lift it like counterpoint in music. So I .raised it to pitch again with another section of its antithesis, which is the story of a man who got his love and spent the rest of the book fleeing from it" (Faulkner). About Fine. Signed.
