About This Item
New York: The Modern Library, 1930. Cloth. Very Good/Good +. A serviceable copy of this very early state (but not 1st state) of the 1930 Modern Library edition. Includes the "95 Cent" price on the front dustjacket flap and the orignal pictorial cover by "Wuyts". Solid and VG in its light-blue cloth, with light spotting to the front panel and light staining along its top-edge. And in a bright, Good+ only dustjacket, with notable chipping at the front panel's top-edge and lighter chipping to the spine ends. Also, the spine and front panel are cleanly separated from the rear panel (but seamlessly hold together in a tight mylar covering). January 1930 Introduction to this early Modern Library edition by Henry Seidel Canby.
Synopsis
Based on real events and acquaintances of Hemingway, Sun Also Rises is about American and English expats in Pamplona.

This was the one book I never read from EH. I have to say it is an outstanding achievement of the human experience. What a book! Finishing it gives you a feeling of what's real, eternal and why our lives are full of contradictions.

This book is a classic for any shelf. I recommend starting out with this story if you're not familiar with Hemingway's work.
