“AS CLOSE TO THE GREAT AMERICAN NOVEL AS ANYONE”: FIRST EDITIONS OF DOS PASSOS’ MONUMENTAL U.S.A. TRILOGY; EACH INSCRIBED BY HIM

First editions of Dos Passos' epic U.S.A. Trilogy, each signed and inscribed by him. Octavo, 3 volumes, original cloth. Each are very good to near fine in the original dust jackets. We have never seen another complete set signed.

To Sinclair Lewis, John Dos Passos was “the father of humanized and living fiction-not merely for America but for the world.” For Norman Mailer, Dos Passos’ “trilogy on America came as close to the Great American novel as anyone,” and Malcolm Cowley hailed this remarkable epic as “the most important and the best of the many American novels written in the naturalistic tradition… a powerful and personal vision” (New York Times).
