Description: Faulkner, William - Light in August - Harrison Smith & Robert Haas: New York, 1932 - First Edition / First Printing / First State- “First Printing” stated on the copyright page with no mention of later printings as required in order to denote the first printing of the first edition. First state with “Jefferson” for “Mottstown” on page 340 line 1, orange top stain, and the correct binding which is stamped on the spine in blue and the front cover in orange. “Memory believes before knowing remembers. Believes longer than recollects, longer than knowing even wonders.” The book has scattered stains, soiling, rubbing, a short split, and general shelf wear. The boards are reasonably straight, the binding is firm but is cracked, and internally there is some of the unavoidable tanning but it is free of writing, stamps, etc. One of 8500 copies in the first printing. A cornerstone work of Southern Gothic literature and one of Faulkner’s finest. All books are offered with a full 30 day postage paid return policy.
