Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. 322 pages. Royal octavo (9 1/4" x6 1/4") bound in original publisher's quarter red cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original jacket. Inscribed by the author. First edition. William Timothy "Tim" O'Brien (born October 1, 1946) is an American novelist b…est known for his work of fiction, The Things They Carried, a critically acclaimed collection of semi-autobiographical, inter-related short-stories inspired by O'Brien's experiences in the Vietnam War. In addition, he is known for his work, Going After Cacciato, also written about wartime Vietnam. O'Brien has held the endowed chair at the MFA program of Texas State University, San Marcos every other year since the 2003-2004 year (i.e. 2003-2004, 2005-2006, 2007-2008, 2009¿2010, and 2011-2012). Tim O'Brien is widely acclaimed as our finest chronicler of the Vietnam War and its aftermath. In his novel July, July he tells the heart-rending and often hilarious story of a group of men and women who came into adulthood at a moment when American ideals and innocence began to fade. Their lives will ring familiar to anyone who has dreamed big dreams, suffered disappointment, and still struggled toward a happy ending. At the thirtieth reunion of Minnesota's Darton Hall College class of 1969, ten old friends join their classmates for a July weekend of dancing, drinking, flirting, reminiscing, regretting. The three decades since their graduation have seen marriage and divorce, children and careers, hopes deferred and abandoned. Two best friends toast their ex-husbands with vodka and set out for a good time. A damaged war veteran opens his soul to a republican trophy wife recovering from a radical mastectomy. An overweight mop manufacturer with a large yet failing hear reignites his passion for a hyperkinectic housewife. And whispering in the background is the elusive Johnny Ever, part cynical angel, part conscience, the cosmic soul of ages past and of ages future. O'Brien once again strikes at the emotional nerve center of our lives. With humor and a sense of wistful hope, July, July speaks directly our our unique American character and to our unique resilience. Condition: Inscribed on title else a fine copy in like jacket. Inscribed by Author(s).
