[Rarebooks] FS: Advance Copy of REVOLUTIONARY ROAD by Richard Yates

[Charles Agvent]

YATES, Richard. REVOLUTIONARY ROAD. Boston: Little, Brown & Company, 
(1961). First Edition. Advance Copy in plain printed white dustwrapper 
with praise from the publisher on the front and rear panels, including a 
blurb by Alfred Kazin. Yates's powerful first book which Kurt Vonnegut 
called "the Great Gatsby of our time." Tennessee Williams said of this 
book: "Here is more than fine writing; here is what, added to fine 
writing, makes a book come immediately, intensely, and brilliantly 
alive. If more is needed to make a masterpiece in modern American 
fiction, I am sure I don't know what it is." An Academy-Award nominated 
film was made from this book reuniting Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate 
Winslet from TITANIC. Just about Fine in a close to Fine dustwrapper 
with the spine tanned but in this case much less severely than typically 
found.

"No one forgets the truth; they just get better at lying." (#020856)
