Sobre este artículo
Westminster, Maryland, U.S.A.: Random House Inc, 1974. First Edition, First Printing. Cloth. Fine/Near Fine in Archival Plastic. A handsome First Edition, First Printing signed by the author and with an interesting provenance. Included in the book is a bookmark from "Kroch's & Brentano's, Inc, 29 South Wabash Avenue, Chicago 60603" that states "1st Edition Circle -- A First Edition, Autographed by the author especially for the member of The First Edition Circle." There is also a contemporaneous name and date, "Rowland Young, 11 October 1974." Kroch's & Brentano's was a bookstore in Chicago. Carl A. Kroch took over the bookstore upon his father's retirement in 1952 and expanded the business to form Kroch's & Brentano's that grew to 20 stores. The company closed in 1995 when Kroch retired and. "Rowland Young" is believed to be Rowland Lee Young, a scholarly writer and editor at the American Bar Association for 31 years. He died in 2001 at the age of 78 in Glendale, Arizona, near where this book was purchased. The date Mr. Young wrote on the front endpaper, "11 October 1974" must have been very close to the release date of the book; the dustjacket date is "10/74." The book is black cloth with an attractive red topstain and is in fine condition. The dustjacket is complete and in fine condition but for light touches of wear on the spine ends. A wonderful copy.
Sinopsis
Something Happened is a 1974 novel by Joseph Heller. His second novel (release thirteen years after Catch-22), it turns the focus of the same jaundiced eye from life in the military to the work and home life of Corporate Man living the American Dream. Something Happened has a much darker tone than its predecessor.
