Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: None, As Issued. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 215 pages. Published in 2000. The author's nineteenth novel. One of John Updike's finest achievements. Limited "Signed First Edition Society" Edition of 1000 copies. The true First Edition. Precedes and should not be conf…used with all other subsequent editions, particularly the regular trade edition. Published as a handsome leather-bound edition only. There is no ISBN. The Limited Edition is now scarce. A brilliant production by Franklin Mint: Regular-sized volume format. Dark brown leather boards with gilt King And Queen of Spades Card Designs on the cover and back, as issued. Matching gilt titles on the spine. Text by John Updike. "Special Message" Essay Introduction by the author, which appears in this Limited Edition only. As expected, it is illuminating and beautifully written. Letter From The Publisher, printed on separate glossy stock paper, laid-in. Drawing Frontispiece by S. Thomas Belton. Raised bands. Gilt paper edges. Marbled endpapers. Red satin ribbon marker bound-in. Printed on archival stock paper in the United States to the highest standards. The production values are exemplary in every respect. Without DJ, as issued. Presents, in its Limited Edition format, John Updike's "Gertrude And Claudius". His imaginative "prequel" to Shakespeare's "Hamlet". Which means his literary subject is Shakespeare THROUGH the Master's greatest play. "Precisely honed, buoyant with sly wit, masterful character analysis, and astutely observed historical details. This tour-de-force by the protean Updike re-imagines the circumstances leading to Shakepeare's Hamlet. Though he wears his knowledge lightly, Updike establishes the context of the time through details of social, cultural, intellectual, and theological ideas. The resolution is breathtaking" (Library Journal). An absolute "must-have" title for John Updike collectors. This is a copy of the Limited Edition of 1000 copies. It is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in blue ink-pen on the Front Limitation Page by John Updike. In addition, it comes with a lovely Handwritten Note to a colleague, which neatly sums up his novel: "For K. , This dear little flight of fancy, John Updike". The recipient, who is named, was a colleague and friend, and cannot be named here. His inscription is one of the most beautiful we have ever seen: Specific, self-deprecating, and heartfelt. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few copies of the Limited Edition still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have very serious flaws. It is difficult to understand how a Limited Edition could be handled so badly. A scarce signed copy thus. A writer all his adult life, John Updike was probably the most-honored American writer of our time. In 2003, Updike received the National Medal for Humanities, joining a very small group of great living Americans who have been honored with both the National Medal of the Arts and the National Medal for the Humanities. Updike's greatest novels, "Rabbit Is Rich" and "Rabbit At Rest", won Pulitzer Prizes. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER JOHN UPDIKE TITLES IN OUR CATALOG).
