Styron, William : Sophie's Choice

The Easton Press, Norwalk, Connecticut, 1999

[1999] Deep blue, full leather hardcover featuring beautiful gilt designs/gilt lettering. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. THIS IS NOT THE CLOTH-COVERED TRADE BOOK OR A CHEAP COMPOSITE LEATHER. IT'S THE GENUINE FULL LEATHER BY EASTON PRESS. Sophisticated, fine binding has six raised ridges on spine. Lettering, designs stamped with gorgeous accents of 22kt. gold - a hallmark of fine bookmaking. This beautifully bound book was hand selected from individually tanned hides. Textured and shaded, acid-neutral paper won't turn yellow over time. Pages are Smyth-sewn into binding for permanence (not glued like ordinary books). Endpapers are beautiful satin moiré. Edges gilded on three sides to enhance the elegance of the book. Satin ribbon page marker bound in. Condition: New, pristine. Free of binding cracks, tears. Binding gilt not chipped - fine. Free of bookplates, stickers, writing, page tears. Book kept in temperature-controlled environment - no smelly damp stains or the smell of a previous smoker. After William Styron was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for his The Confessions of Nat Turner in 1967, he later began writing, exploring an equally charged subject: the Holocaust. Set in 1947, Sophie's Choice is the complex tale of an aspiring young writer, Stingo, who befriends Nathan Landau, a brilliant, unstable Jew. Nathan's beautiful Polish lover, Sophie Zawistowska, is a survivor of the Nazi Holocaust whose guilt over a terrible choice forced on her at Auschwitz destroys both her and Nathan. The story won the American Book Award. Powerful, solid literature. Signed and collectible. Note: We are a well-established, well-respected, ethical book dealer in business since 1991. We describe the condition of our books thoroughly and honestly, so you'll know exactly what you will be receiving when you order. We ship promptly.. Book Condition: Fine. Binding: Full-Leather
