About This Item
This is a first edition of The Reivers, a Reminiscence, written by William Faulkner and published in 1962. It was his last novel, and won him his second Pulitzer Prize. It is a comedy and, in 1969, was made into a movie starring Steve McQueen.
As you can see, the dust jacket (unclipped) is dappled and has some wear to the edges. There is a little dent on the cover, about 1/4" long. Inside, the book is in mint condition—red boards with a gold design on the cover and spine. It's pristine.
Synopsis
The Reivers, published in 1962, is the last novel by the American author William Faulkner. The bestselling novel was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1963. Faulkner previously won this award for his book A Fable, making him one of only three authors to be awarded it more than once. Unlike many of his earlier works, it is a straightforward narration and eschews the complicated literary techniques of his greatest works.
