Descrizione libro Original Black Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good Plus. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good Plus. First UK Edition. 1989. xi, 162pp. "John Kennedy Toole wrote 'The Neon Bible' for a literary contest when he was sixteen. The manuscript languished in a drawer for years . 'The Neon Bible' tells the story of David, a young boy growing up in a small southern town in the 1940s. He lives in a dilapidated house on a hill. From the porch he can see the whole valley: the Renning smokestack with the tall black R that Poppa said stood for Rich against Poor, lamps winking on and off in cosy houses as people go about their business. And every night David watches the neon Bible light up the sky, righteous red letters on a golden page with a big blue cross in the middle, emblem of God-fearing folk who snub his family because Poppa can't afford the church dues. . David's voice is disarming, funny, sad, shred. Through it we share his awkward, painful, universally recognizable encounter with first love. He is naive yet sharly observant, and the sheet artistry of John Kennedy Toole draws us irresistably into his world." Book and unclipped jacket both in excellent condition. Very slight shelfware to jacket. No inscriptions. Codice articolo LitToole001

Descrizione libro Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Jacket by Joanna Ciechanowska (illustratore). 1st Edition. First UK edition, first impression. Some edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, small closed tear to top front jacket, corners very slightly rubbed. Not price clipped (£12.99), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy. 162pp. American author John Kennedy Toole (1939-69), wrote 'The Neon Bible' for a literary contest at the age of sixteen. The manuscript was finally published twenty years after Toole's death from suicide. 'The Neon Bible' opens with a young man named David on a train, leaving the small Southern town he's grown up in for the first time. What unspools is the tender and tragic coming of age story of a lonely child, a story that revolves around David's unorthodox friendship with his great aunt Mae, a former stage performer who is fiercely at odds with the conservative townspeople, and the everyday toll of living in an environment of religious fanaticism. From the opening lines of 'The Neon Bible', David is fully alive, naive yet sharply observant, drawing us into his world through the sure artistry of John Kennedy Toole, author of his other posthumously published novel 'A Confederacy of Dunces'.
