Sobre este artículo
New York: Boni & Liveright Publishers, 1927. Hardcover, black boards & vellum. Good/No Jacket, marbled slipcase in Good condition. Signed Presentation Copy of a Limited Edition. The limitation page indicates the edition consists of 265 numbered and signed copies, of which 250 are for sale. The word 'Presentation' is hand-written on the number line, and it is signed in black ink 'Sherwood Anderson.' Though not indicated, this was in the collection of T. R. Smith, chief editor at Liveright during the 1920s. 118 pages, free verse and prose poems. Slipcase edges worn & rubbed, glassine torn with losses, spine well-spotted and darkened. Some pages unopened, ribbon marker. Although the book and slipcase are a bit worse for wear, it is a unique copy of an unusual work. Anderson, 1876-1941, was an American novelist and short story writer best known for his 1919 masterpiece 'Winesburg, Ohio' about life in a typical Midwestern town. He is remembered for his sympathy for the struggles of the common man. He considered 'A New Testament' to be an experimental work exploring 'the purely fanciful side of a man's life, the odds and ends of thought, the little pockets of thoughts and emotions that are so seldom touched.' It was his 'own kind of poetry [of] mystic, vague impulses' akin to the chants or utterances of some of the Hebrew poets in the Old Testament.
