About this Item

A Limited First Edition, "privately printed exclusively for Members of The First Edition Society". A FINE, like-new, bright, clean, tight, collector-worthy copy sans flaws. A Franklin Library high-quality publication with full-leather boards, 3 raised-ribs on spine, a built-in silk ribbon page marker, silk endpapers, and gold-gilt page edges on all sides. From the "special message to the members of THE FIRST EDITON SOCIETY" foreword page of author Robert Anderson (with his facsimile signature) "I find that readers and playgoers are fascinated by the creative process involved in writing. (I, too, am fascinated by the process when I sit at my desk, sometimes terrifyingly empty, and wonder how I managed to write the last book or play). Why a person writes and how he writes remain a mystery. Life seems to program a writer, sensitizes him to certain subjects, themes, stories." Book enhanced in/by the full-page, black-and-white drawings of Barnett Plotkin. 257 pages. GP12.
