First Edition of the author's first book, one of the great novels of World War II, and one of the top hundred classics of the last century. Thick octavo. Signed by Mailer on the title page. Some rubbing to the boards as usual, else near fine in a fine first issue dust jacket. A very sharp copy.
The Naked and the Dead follows the story of an army platoon of foot soldiers fighting for the Japanese island of Anopopei. "The best novel to come out of the . . . war, perhaps the best book to come out of any war" (San Francisco Chronicle).
