First Edition of Flannery O'Connor's first novel Wise Blood
First edition of O'Connor's powerful first novel, one of only 3000 examples. Octavo, original cloth. Near fine in a very good first issue dust jacket. Housed in a custom half morocco slipcase. A nice presentation.
Assembled from disparate stories first published in Mademoiselle, Sewanee Review and Partisan Review, Flannery O'Connor's first novel, Wise Blood, has come to be appreciated as a work of "low comedy and high seriousness". Themes of redemption, racism, sexism, and isolation are prevalent throughout the novel which O'Connor stated was about "freedom, free will, life and death, and the inevitability of belief."
