About This Item
New York: Grove Press, 1959. Wrappers. Very good. Uncorrected, publisher's working proofs for the 1st U. S. edition of Beckett's 2nd novel. Unbound, uncut sheets, folded and sewn, an in-house product, not some advance copy. Old and intriguing pencil and ink corrections that look like publisher's work towards a future edition. Small chips and tears to the first and last leaves else very good, and clearly rare. Watt is a willing servant, but his unexplored capacity bumps up against unexplained need.
