First American edition, early printing of Rushdie’s classic novel. Octavo, original half cloth, title page vignette. Boldly signed in full by Salman Rushdie on the title page. Near fine in a fine dust jacket.
The Satanic Verses is a wonderfully erudite study of the evil and good entwined within the hearts of women and men, an epic journey of tears and laughter, served up by a writer at the height of his powers. "Swift's Gulliver's Travels, Voltaire's Candide, Sterne's Tristam Shandy.... Salman Rushdie, it seems to me, is very much a latter day member of their company" (New York Times Book Review).
