The Chinese Novel: Nobel Lecture Delivered Before the Swedish Academy at Stockholm December 12 1938

1939ref. 308048New York: John Day 1939. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. The lecture given by Buck on accepting the Nobel Prize for literature. She was the third American after Sinclair Lewis and Eugene O'Neill and fourth woman after Selma Lagerof Grazia Deledda and Sigrid Undset to win the prize. Buck whose best-known novel The Good Earth is set in China uses the Nobel pulpit to discuss Chinese fiction a little considered subject at the time. It wasn't until 2012 that a Chinese writer—Mo Yan—was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature. 59 pages. First edition first printing. A very good copy in a very good dust jacket with a snag on the back panel resulting in a narrow band of creasing and some tears. Bookplate on the front pastedown. In a very good slipcase with some wear to the corners. This copy is one of an unspecified number signed by Buck and issued in a slipcase. It is possible that none of the signed copies were for sale. This one comes with a letter from the publisher addressed "Dear Bookseller" that reads "We take pleasure in sending you with our compliments a personal advance copy of The Chinese Novel." The letter goes on to promote a forthcoming Chinese novel Moment in Peking by Lin Yutang. This book is not common with the slipcase and letter. John Day hardcover

The Chinese Novel is Buck's Nobel Lecture delivered at the Swedish Academy upon winning the Nobel Prize for Literature. Buck the first of just two American women to win the prize points out the distinct nature of the Chinese novel the quintessential grass-roots form which comes from and lives within the Chinese common people whose tea house and farming villages are the roots of the stories contained therein. She also predicted - correctly - that her own adherence to this form would cause her to fall out of the critical limelight in time. With the slipcase hard to replace.
