[EAN: 9780060934408], Gebraucht, guter Zustand, [PU: New York City, NY: HarperCollins, 2002], 1st Printing. Signed. 213 pages. Published in 2002. Collection of the author's plays. One of Denis Johnson's finest achievements. The First Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a softcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Denis Johnson's "Shoppers: Two Plays". They being "Hellbound On My Trail: A Drama In Three Parts" and "Shoppers Carried By Escalators Into The Flames: A Drama In Two Acts". Worthy of comparison with the ground-breaking plays of Sam Shepard, characterized by the author's humane and powerful voice. "Human imperfection is one of Denis Johnson's specialties - in his critically acclaimed novels, short stories, and nonfiction, and now, in two brilliant plays. A dramatized field guide to some of the more dysfunctional and dysphoric inhabitants of the American West: A sexual-misconduct investigator, who sexually misconducts; a renegade Jehovah's Witness, who supports his splinter Jehovean group by dealing drugs; the Cassandra Brothers, their father, and their grandmother, thrown together at a family reunion/wedding/melee in their shabby homestead in Ukiah, California. Their appeal derives from the author's perfect vision of imperfection, embodied with energy and courage" (Publisher's blurb). "There's an enormous appeal in Johnson's bleak-comic vision of a semi-mythic American West" (San Francisco Chronicle). An absolute "must-have" title for Denis Johnson collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in blue ink-pen on the title page by Denis Johnson . It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the First Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. Winner of the National Book Award in 2007 and Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in 2008 for "Tree of Smoke". Denis Johnson's "Jesus' Son" was selected by the panel of New York Times writers, critics, and editors as one of the Top 20 most important works of American fiction of the last 25 years. One of the greatest American writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER DENIS JOHNSON TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0060934409., Books<
