First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fair. 1st Edition. First American Edition (SD). I'm pricing this book as, by far, the least expensive first American edition. The condition rating is only Fair due entirely to the covers. The interior of the book, the pages, are in very good condition. You can see the covers in the photos. There is rub-through at the four corners which includes a little loss at the bottom two. There are small bits of loss off of the edges. There is loss on the rear side of the spine, off the top edge of the spine, and off the label on the spine. There is a good deal of rub-through on all of the edges, the top, middle and bottom ones. You can also see a few closed tears on the spine. Having gotten that out of the way, the pages are in very good condition. They are very clean. I turned them all over. I saw a half-dozen or so very small tan spots, all at the margin. I saw only two top corner creases. There is a little crinkling here and there. There are no markings. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. The book is also solidly bound. The pages are reasonably tight throughout, as are the covers. I didn't see any binding issues at all. 'Ivan Alekseyevich Bunin was the first Russian writer awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. He was noted for the strict artistry with which he carried on the classical Russian traditions in the writing of prose and poetry. The texture of his poems and stories, sometimes referred to as 'Bunin brocade' is considered to be one of the richest in the language. Bunin was a revered figure among white emigres, European critics, and many of his fellow writers, who viewed him as a true heir to the tradition of realism in Russian literature established by Tolstoy and Chekhov.' The titles of the three 'Other' stories are Gentle Breathing, Kasimir Stanislavavitch, and Son.
