About This Item

New York: Farrar, Straus and Cudahy, 1961. First edition of Malamud's third novel. Octavo, original cloth. Association copy, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper to his cousins, "For Min and Marshall, In appreciation of your hospitality Bernie." Near fine in a very good dust jacket with chipping to the spine extremities. Jacket design by Milton Glaser. An overlooked masterpiece. It may still be undervalued as Malamud's funniest and most embracing novel" (Jonathan Lethem).
