Item description from seller

First Printing, trade issue. Octavo (21cm); in the first issue black cloth binding, with titling and rule in stamped in gilt and red on spine and front panel; red topstain; dustjacket; [viii],[2],3-383,[1]pp. A fresh, Fine copy, with the topstain bright and unfaded. Dustjacket is price-clipped, with some trivial wear to extremities, and a handful of small closed tears; Near Fine. "Faulkner intended this as a novel, though it includes material previously (or concurrently) published as individual stories. The sections are entitled "Was," "The Fire and the Hearth," "Pantaloon in Black," "The Old People," "The Bear," "Delta Autumn," and "Go Down, Moses." Generally these sections are considerably rewritten from previously published short stories bearing the same titles" (Petersen A21b). Brodsky & Hamblin 574.
