Description

COMPLET SET OF SIGNED FIRST EDITIONS of Updike's masterpiece considered by Julian Barnes as the greatest postwar American novel.

Vol I : fine, first issue dust jacket has the $4.00 printed price present with minor wear to the spine and edges.

Vol II, III and IV are very fine with first issue dust-jackets in perfect conditions.

The simplicity. Getting rid of something by giving it to itself. God Himself folded into the tiny adamant structure, Self-destined to a succession of explosions, the great slow gathering out of water and air and silicon: this is felt without words in the turn of the round hoe-handle in his palms. (Rabbit, Run).
