Title: Miss Zilphia Gant Author: Faulkner, William Place: [Dallas] Publisher: Book Club of Texas Date: 1932 Description: xii, 29, [2] pp. (8vo) original brown cloth lettered and stamped in gilt. No. 69 of 300 copies. First Edition. "The publication of Miss Zilphia Gant by The Book Club of Texas is appropriate. Faulkner's work is so closely identified with the South that it seems almost out of place on an Eastern publisher's list. And he found an early recognition and critical appraisal in the Dallas News book page, the editor of which, John H. McGinnis, has some claim to be the reviewer who first appreciated the significance of Faulkner as new force in American fiction. A glance at some of the reviews of Faulkner's work will reveal that he has not always been so fortunate in his critics. Henry Smith Dallas, May, 1932". (From the preface). Lot Amendments Condition: Moderate wear to extremities. near fine. Item number: 280044
