The Phantom Tollbooth; Signed by Norton Juster
Early printing of the 35th Anniversary edition of this classic work. Octavo, original half cloth, cartographic endpapers, illustrated by Jules Feiffer. Signed by Norton Juster on the title page. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. With an appreciation by Maurice Sendak.
"This book has been described by Naomi Lewis as ‘the best original modern book in the Carroll line’" (Carpenter & Prichard, 409). Anyone with an appreciation for the language and irony of Alice in Wonderland will consider this witty adventure a classic. The novel begins with a miserably bored lad who exclaims that "there is nothing for me to do, nowhere I'd care to go, and hardly anything worth seeing." Suddenly a tollbooth appears in his room, and, having no other interests, the lad Milo drives through it and sets off in his toy car for a mythic journey.
