Sobre este artículo
New York: Random House, 1954. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Fine. Near Fine in an about Fine jacket, unclipped ($4.75), lightly toned. Maroon cloth with gilt lettering with black and blind stamped crosses on the front board. Firmly bound with a slight foward lean and a faint top stain, former owner's bookplate and two ghost marks on the front endpaper, clean otherwise. Winner of both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award. A shift from Faulkner's usual Southern setting, instead opting for World War I France and the Christ-like Corporal Stefan.
Sinopsis
A Fable is a novel written in 1954 by the American author William Faulkner, which won him both the Pulitzer prize and the National Book Award in 1955. Despite these recognitions, however, the novel received mixed critical reviews and a reputation as one of Faulkner's lesser works . The author, on the other hand, spent over a decade and tremendous effort on A Fable, and considered it his masterpiece when it was completed. Historically, it can be seen as a precursor to Catch 22.
