Burning Bright
New York: The Viking Press 1950. First edition. Cloth. Very Good/Good. 8" by 5.5". None. The first edition of this novel from Pulitzer winner John Steinbeck. First edition first printing. 'Burning Bright' was written as an experiment with producing a play in novel format. Rather than providing only the dialogue and brief stage directions as would be expected in a play Steinbeck fleshes out the scenes with details of both the characters and the environment. The intention was to allow the play to be read by the non-theatrical reader while still allowing the dialogue to be lifted and performed with little adaptation by acting companies. In a grey cloth binding with original unclipped dustwrapper. Externally generally smart with just some slight shelfwear. Dustwrapper is sound though with some edgewear and handling marks. Internally firmly bound. Ink signature to front free-endpaper. Pages are generally bright and clean aside from a few patches of foxing. Very Good The Viking Press hardcover

Steinbeck used this method experimentally in "Of Mice and Men" and "The Moon is Down" but this book is a more complete attempt at this form. While this book was not critically acclaimed Steinbeck as always is a very vivid writer and bring his four characters to life in this play concerned with the timeless themes of love jealousy friendship and the desire to have a child The Viking Press hardcover

Reference: Goldstone and Payne John Steinbeck: A Bibliographical Catalogue A22b. ~TT~ 1.5P A first edition copy of an important novel by 1962 Nobel laureate John Steinbeck 1902-1968. Published in 1945 it is set during the Great Depression in Monterey California on a street lined with sardine canneries that is known as Cannery Row. The story revolves around the people living there: Lee Chong the local grocer; Doc a marine biologist; and Mack the leader of a group of derelict people. The actual Monterey location Steinbeck was writing about known casually as Ocean View Avenue was later renamed 'Cannery Row' in honor of the book. A film version was released in 1982 and a stage version was produced in 1995. Cannery Row focuses on the acceptance of life as it is - both the exuberance of community and the loneliness of the individual. John Steinbeck draws on his memories of the real inhabitants of Monterey and interweaves their stories in this world where only the fittest survive - creating what is at once one of his most humorous and poignant works. In this work John Steinbeck returns to the setting of Tortilla Flat to create another evocative portrait of life as it is lived by those who unabashedly put the highest value on the intangibles - human warmth camaraderie and love.

Overall a very clean and presentable first edition copy of one of the half-dozen major works of Steinbeck.</p><p><u>Note on edition/state</u>: The first edition/first printing of this book appeared in two states both released simultaneously. The first state has been determined to be buff-colored somewhat tan-like boards while the second state is canary yellow. Apparently during production the printers ran out of the buff/tan materials for the boards and to meet the publishing deadline yellow colored materials were brought in and used for the rest of the print-run. Purists collectors will contest the buff-colored boards are the most preferable. However they really represent at best simply two states of the first printing not two printings as further printings would be indicated subsequently because the book was popular since copies of both states were released simultaneously in 1945. At the time buyers would have had about a 50-50 chance of purchasing either the buff or yellow boards of these copies. Typically first state copies of the buff-tan variety in near fine or better dust jackets are priced at $2000 while the yellow boards as offered here can be had for a fraction of the price. Everything else the pages the dust jacket price etc are the same. As a collector I am more interested in the condition of the dust jacket rather than whether the boards are first or second state. Shortly thereafter a so-called wartime edition was issued in blue boards. The wartime edition while a good reading copy has essentially almost no premium value on the collectors market.</p><p>NOTE: All modern books with dust jackets come with dust jacket covers.</p><p>ALSO: The pictures are of the actual item for sale. The pictures are NOT stock photos.</p> Viking hardcover
