First US edition, first printing. Based on Ooka's own experiences, Fires on the Plain explores the disintegration of the human spirit amid the horrors of war. Set on the Filipino island of Leyte as the Japanese army collapses under the weight of the American advance in World War II, the novel follows a soldier's descent into isolation, starvation, and moral ambiguity. Within this devastated landscape, moments of compassion clash with terror, and the boundaries between hope and despair grow increasingly blurred. A modern classic, it remains one of the most powerful antiwar novels of the twentieth century. Faint toning and rubbing extremities, still near fine in very good edge worn and rubbed dust jacket, in mylar cover. Publisher's black cloth and teal boards, in Muni Lieblein dust jacket ($3.50).
