"It is a rather curious thing": Signed Limited Edition of Narration: Four Lectures; Signed by Gertrude Stein and Thornton Wilder
Signed limited edition, one of 120 numbered copies, this is number 93 signed by Gertrude Stein and Thornton Wilder. Octavo, original cloth, slipcase. Near fine in a near fine slipcase.
Stein's writing can be placed in three categories: "hermetic" works best illustrated by The Making of Americans: The Hersland Family; popularized writing such as The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas; and speech writing and more accessible autobiographical writing of later years, of which Brewsie and Willie is a good example. Her works include novels, plays, stories, libretti and poems written in a highly idiosyncratic, playful, repetitive, and humorous style.
