About This Item
Np/Nd, [ca.1974]. Small Octavo. Vol. #1. 89pp. and Vol. #2. 107pp. Salinger did not want these to be published since he considered them early unfinished ideas (mostly from the early 1940's). particularly the columns Salinger wrote for the Ursinus College newspaper while he was an undergrad Though they already give insights into his use of language, he attempted to suppress them and finally agreed to drop the charges as long as no others were published. While essentially these are unauthorized versions. They nevertheless give insight into the mind of Salinger. His early works were very good first person approaches and very readable but not up to his major published works. Bound in stiff pictorial paper wraps lettered and decorated in pink and red, black and white pictorial inset. Volume one has damp staining on the front cover, p.28 and p. 30 has a couple of tiny holes to upper corners, most likely from sticking together, the rest of the volume clean, volume two is without damage. A very good set.
