Worcester, Metacom, 1983. The first book publication of this piece by a writer whose early work in The New Yorker was largely responsible for creating the field of literary journalism and creative nonfiction. This piece first appeared in The New Yorker and was eventually reprinted in the 1985 collection, Table of Contents. Of a total edition of 176 copies, this is copy number 77 of 150 numbered copies, signed by the author. Fine in saddle-stitched marbled paper self-wrappers. Quite scarce these days. [#031725] SOLD
