Description: William H Gass (1924-2017). Reading Rilke: Reflections on the Problems of Translation: Uncorrected Proof. New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1999. First edition / First printing. Uncorrected Proof. White printed wrappers. xvi, 233 pages. Very fine. Note: This is the uncorrected proof and should not be confused with the hardcover edition. Very few proofs were produced which makes this a highly desirable collector’s item. Uncorrected proofs are released to reviewers, book buyers for stores, film producers and others to generate interest in upcoming titles. They are the earliest form of books to reach anyone outside of the publishing house, predating the First Edition of the book by many months. Sometimes advance copies have differences from the published books, even changes in plot are made, and the advance copy is the only place to find these versions. Paperback.
