"As nearly perfect as any American fiction I know": First Modern Library Edition of James Salter's A Sport And A Pastime; Signed by Him
First Modern Library edition of this modern classic, hailed as a masterpiece. Octavo, original cloth. Signed by James Salter on the title page. Fine in a fine dust jacket.
"As nearly perfect as any American fiction I know," is how Reynolds Price (The New York Times) described this classic that has been a favorite of readers, both here and in Europe, for almost forty years. Set in provincial France in the 1960s, James Salter's A Sport and a Pastime is the intensely carnal story―part shocking reality, part feverish dream ―of a love affair between a footloose Yale dropout and a young French girl. There is the seen and the unseen―and pages that burn with a rare intensity.
