Sobre este artículo
New York: Random House, 1999. First Edition, First Printing. Hardcover. Near fine/very good. Signed by Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison, the first edition of Juneteenth by Ralph Ellison.. Octavo, xxiii, [2], 368pp. Green hardcover, title in gilt on black spine. Stated "First Edition" on copyright page with the publisher's full number line. Solid text block, faint dust remnants to top edge, a near fine example. In the publisher's dust jacket, light shelf wear, a very good copy. Signed by Toni Morrison on the front free endpaper. Morrison's review is printed on the front flap of the dust jacket, where she calls the novel: "A majestic narrative concept." Juneteenth, Ralph Ellison's second novel, was published posthumously. It was assembled from countless notes left by Ellison upon his death in 1994. He is best remembered for his first novel, Invisible Man, which won the National Book Award for Fiction in 1953.
Sinopsis
Ralph Ellison, known best for The Invisible Man , wrote most of Juneteenth but reported the manuscript lost in a fire in 1964. The version of Juneteenth: A Novel that we know today was compiled by Ellison's friend John F. Callahan. He used the 2,000+ pages that Ellison left behind to arrange, edit and publish Juneteenth posthumously.
