Description: A Confederacy of Dunces Author: John Kennedy Toole, Introduction by Walker Percy Title: A Confederacy of Dunces Description: Grove Press, 1986. First paperback edition, eleventh printing. Good condition. Previous owner's name present. Written by John Kennedy Toole and published posthumously in 1980, the novel became a cult classic and won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1981. Its protagonist, Ignatius J. Reilly, is an unforgettable, larger-than-life character whose misadventures and scathing critiques of the world around him provide sharp social commentary. The novel's blend of humor, pathos, and keen observation makes it a distinctive voice in American literature, and its story of how the manuscript was championed by Toole's mother and brought to publication by author Walker Percy adds to its legacy. The novel is celebrated not only for its literary merits but also for its role in highlighting the richness of Southern literature and the complexities of human experience.
