FAULKNER, William. Light in August . New York: Harrison Smith and Robert Haas, 1932.
FAULKNER, William. Light in August . New York: Harrison Smith and Robert Haas, 1932. 8 o . Original coarse-grained grey cloth, stamped in orange on the front cover and in blue on the spine [second binding]; pictorial dust jacket (some edgewear along top edge of front panel, otherwise fine and bright); WITH THE VERY RARE PLAIN GLASSINE OUTER WRAPPER (some chipping, rear panel torn); cloth slipcase. FIRST EDITION, second binding. Light in August is one of Faulkner's most highly acclaimed works. The novel revolves around three main characters: Lena Grove, a woman searching for the father of her unborn child; Gail Hightower, an elderly troubled minister; and Joe Christmas, a man struggling with his belief that he is part black. "As Faulkner weaves together the stories of these three characters, he explores the devastating effects of racism and religious fanaticism. A FINE COPY, PRESERVING THE PLAIN GLASSINE OUTER WRAPPER. Massey 103; Petersen A13.1a.
