Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 912 pages. Published in 2021. Massive Biography on subject. One of the greatest literary biographies ever written in our time. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. AL…L of the latter were published abroad only. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. In fact, MOST copies were subsequently and hurriedly destroyed by Norton, which feared a massive boycott from censor-activists on the Left. This was, in effect, nothing less than an unprecedented assault on free speech - that inevitably and unwittingly resulted in an ongoing and effective backlash from the Right, sadly derailing the Feminist/"MeToo" Movement as a result. Presents Blake Bailey's "Philip Roth: The Biography". The beleaguered and hapless author's indisputably best book: "A narrative masterwork" (Cynthia Ozick). "Shows how Roth emerged from a lower-middle-class Jewish milieu to achieve the heights of fame" (Publisher's blurb). Among Roth's many achievements: His masterly and unsurpassable novels, which Blake Bailey discusses in lucent detail. An absolute "must-have" title for Philip Roth and Blake Bailey collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Blake Bailey. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page or bookplate. It is also very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen by one of Philip Roth's lifelong friends (who cannot be named here) upon the page where his close friendship with the writer is specifically discussed by Blake Bailey. Which makes this signed copy quite special indeed. This title is a great book. This is the only such double-signed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare double-signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with lovely vintage plates. Six of Philip Roth's novels were selected as among the Top 20 works of American fiction of the last 25 years: "American Pastoral", "The Counterlife", "Operation Shylock", "Sabbath's Theater", "The Human Stain", and "The Plot Against America". Two of the greatest writers, Roth and Bailey both, of the 20th century and our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER PHILIP ROTH AND BLAKE BAILEY TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 039324072X.
