"They carried all they could bear and then some, including a silent awe for the terrible power of the things they carried": First Edition of The Things They Carried; Uniquely signed by Tim O’Brien
First edition of the author's classic fifth book. Octavo, original half cloth. Lengthily signed by the author with a quote on the title page, "'They carried all they could bear and then some, including a silent awe for the terrible power of the things they carried.' Peace, Tim O'Brien." Fine in a near fine dust jacket. A unique example.
A classic work of American literature that has not stopped changing minds and lives since it burst onto the literary scene, The Things They Carried is a ground-breaking meditation on war, memory, imagination, and the redemptive power of storytelling "The Things They Carried is as good as any piece of literature can get . . . It is controlled and wild, deep and tough, perceptive and shrewd" (Chicago Sun Times).
