The Bridge of San Luis Rey with Related Readings Hardcover - 2002
by Wilder, THORNTON
About this book
The Bridge of San Luis Rey is American author Thornton Wilder's second novel, first published in 1927 to worldwide acclaim. It tells the story of several interrelated people who die in the collapse of an Inca rope-fiber suspension bridge in Peru, and the events that lead up to their being on the bridge. A friar who has witnessed the tragic accident then goes about inquiring into the lives of the victims, seeking some sort of cosmic answer to the question of why each had to die.
First Edition Identification
The first general issue edition of this book was actually released in
London, a few days before the first American edition. In the United
States, the first edition was preceded by a very limited "preliminary"
print run of around 22 copes, identifiable in part by the lack of a thin
green border and printer's device on the title page. The first general
edition in the US comprised somewhere between 7,000 and 9,000 copies.
