CARVER, Raymond. CATHEDRAL. New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1983. First 
Edition. Although his previous collection achieved some popularity, this 
title is really Carver's breakthrough and break-away (from the 
restraints of Gordon Lish's style) book. In it, Carver moved beyond the 
constraining label of minimalism to mine an emotional depth not present 
in his previous work and which would blossom fully in his next and last 
book. The title story and "A Small, Good Thing" rank among the best 
stories of the latter twentieth century. SIGNED by the author on the 
title page and dated 10/31/83. Fine in a Fine dustwrapper. (#020044)    
     $450
