Book Description Soft cover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. First published in Great Britain 1991. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition. "Few literary debuts have been as auspicious as Michael Chabon's. His first novel, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, was widely praised and spent seven weeks on The New York Times bestseller list. Here is his first collection of stories, remarkable for their diversity, yet sharing a depth of intellect and sparkle of language that has become Chabon's hallmark." [publisher copy] "His style has an enviable suppleness and fluency which offers the perfect vehicle for the moral feints and shifts of the cool crowd he portrays."--Times Literary Supplement. "An exceptional collection of short stories follows Chabon's well-received debut novel, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh. These subtly ironic tales have a brevity and clarity that allows Chabon's bittersweet observations to hit home. Understatement is Chabon's talent; using words economically, he deftly creates believable situations made remarkable by underlying twists of motivation and behavior. His vivid characters share the need to feel accepted and loved by others. . . Chabon's characters manage to find joy amidst disappointment, and thus a sense of purpose."--Publishers Weekly. Pristine paperback in green illustrated wraps, w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued. Seller Inventory # RUB2967

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. "First published in Great Britain 1991" on its copyright page. Signed, with no personalization or inscription, by author Michael Chabon on its title page. This book is in near fine condition, marred only by a tiny bit of spine lean, plus a light bump on the top of its spine. Its binding is tight, with no spine crease. Covers are unmarked and otherwise unworn, with bright gilt titles on its spine. Pages are unworn and otherwise unmarked. Not a remainder. Its dust jacket, now protected by a removable mylar cover, is also in near fine condition: whole, bright, and unmarked, with a light bump on its front top left corner, but otherwise unworn. I will ship this book in a moisture proof zip-loc bag, padded in bubble wrap, inside a sturdy box to assure it reaches its new owner in the same condition as my description. Signed by Author(s).
