About This Item
A rare uncorrected proof of the National Book Award-winning novel with letter from Paul Slovak, (Executive Editor of Viking at the time) to someone named "Edward."
Europe Central would go on to win the National Book Award in 2005.
From the National Book Award summary:
Europe Central is a half-continent of fictions—sketches, stories, novellas, a full-length novel--reimagining a World War II where Americans are a distant presence. Like an all-hearing intelligence agent, Vollmann occupies the minds of Germans and Russians, artists and generals, victims and torturers in impossible ethical quandaries. Scrupulously researched, rigorously designed, scarifingly voiced, this omnibus is heroic art, the writer's courageous immersion in totalitarian ugliness to retrieve forgotten moral heroes. Full of terror and pity, Vollmann's narratives go back beyond tragedy to the historical mastery of epic.
