Under the Radar

Signed first edition of Richard Ford's Under the Radar

Richard Ford

First edition. 16mo. Pp. 20, [4]. Glossy pictorial stapled wraps. Advance excerpt for the first UK edition of A Multitude of Sins (2001), and its first separate appearance after its initial publication in the September 10, 2000, issue of The New Yorker under the title, "Issues". No stand-alone publication in the U.S.
Signed by the Author.
"On the drive over to the Nicholsons' for dinner – their first in some time – Marjorie Reeves told her husband, Steven Reeves, that she had had an affair with George Nicholson (their host) a year ago, but that it was all over with now and she hoped he – Steven – would not be mad about it and could go on with life." A riff on the inability to "truly" know someone, even those seemingly closest to us.
Awarded the Pulitzer Prize and the PEN/Faulkner Award for Independence Day, the first book to win both prizes, in 2001 Ford received the PEN/Malamud Award for excellence in short fiction. "A Babe Ruth of novelists. One of the finest curators of the great American living museum." Washington Post Book World
