WILDER, Thornton. OUR TOWN. New York: Coward-McCann, Inc., (1938). First
Edition. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and a touchstone of
American theater. After reading this play, Albert Einstein wrote a
letter to Wilder comparing OUR TOWN to Homer's ODYSSEY and Shakespeare's
HAMLET, stating: "That an American of the present day can create with
such delicacy and detachment touches the soul like a miracle." With none
of the sunning typically found on the covers. Fine in a Near Fine,
complete dustwrapper with only mild chipping to the spine tips.
