About This Item
Everyman's Library, 2006. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Signed on the title page. Uncommon to scarce. Didion did not sign many of these Everyman's, which represents the culmination of her career, collecting seven books in one volume: the full texts of Slouching Towards Bethlehem; The White Album; Salvador; Miami; After Henry; Political Fictions; and Where I Was From. Included is documentation from the May 12, 2009 event at Cleveland's PlayhouseSquare where this book was signed (she was a last-minute sub for John Updike after his passing). Fine book in fine jacket with one minor dent to front panel about the size of a grain of rice; still fine. // Wood (+) River (=) Books specializes in place-based and environmental literature, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions.

About Rural Hours
Rural Hours (formerly Wood + River = Books, est. 2019) specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, environmental literature, and contemporary essay, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions. We draw our name from the popular-but-then-forgotten book by Susan Fenimore Cooper (published in 1850), generally considered the first work of environmental creative nonfiction by a woman in the U.S. We are interested in challenging and expanding the canon of environmental literature and finding books that tell remarkable stories and illuminate the tradition of writing about place and natural history.
