Description: Yates, Richard - Revolutionary Road - Little Brown: Boston, 1961 - First Edition / First Printing - “First Edition" stated on the copyright page as required in order to denote the first printing of the first edition. "The Great Gatsby of my time ... one of the best books by a member of my generation.” Kurt Vonnegut on Revolutionary Road. The book has minor edge wear and is a touch dusty. The boards remain rather straight, binding is square and firm, and internally there is no writing or other markings. The price clipped dust jacket has some discreet old tape reinforcement to the upper edge, minor shelf wear, and areas of loss to the two ends of the rear flap. With the exception of that rear flap the dust jacket presents well and has nice shelf presence. A handsome copy of Yates’ increasingly uncommon debut novel. In the opinion of this cataloguer Yates is still the most under appreciated author from the second half of the 20th century. Named by TIME magazine as one of the 100 best English-language novels from 1923 to the present. Basis for the phenomenal 2008 Hollywood adaptation which starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet as the Wheelers. All books are offered with a full 30 day postage paid return policy. All books which are in dust jackets will be mailed with a clear archival dust jacket protector fitted. Shipping costs can be combined if multiple purchases are made. Items will be packaged and shipped within one business day unless otherwise noted. Please always feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.
