IN OUR TIME Ernest Hemingway / Bruccoli Clark 1977 (Three Mountains 1924) HC DJ

Description: In Our Time by Ernest Hemingway A beautiful 1977 facsimile edition of Hemingway's limited edition published in 1924. While maintaining the look of the original publication, modern elements include heavy linen paper and a dust jacket modeled on the original. The covers match the 1924 edition with russet cloth over boards, gold titling to front cover. Frontis portrait of Hemingway in b/w by Henry Strater. Condition Notes: G/G. Boards clean, light scuffing and one shallow ding to bottom edges; torquing to binding. Text block is tight and free of notations or markings. The paper remains bright. Original dust jacket has small nicks along edge, chipping to spine ends, and foxing to inner surface only; 5cm closed tear to top front edge; unclipped ($8.95). "'Tell us about the French women, Hank. What are they like?'" Facsimile edition of Hemingway's second book, a collection of lyrical narrative vignettes. Hemingway's lasting contribution to literature arguably rests on his innovations in the short story – terse, elliptical, with more going on beneath the surface than above – with these eighteen meditations on the human costs of the First World War. A window onto the development of the author's early style. The collection was originally published in 1924 in an extremely limited edition (170 copies) by Three Mountains Press, a small Parisian press.
