195041450New York: Viking Press 1950. First edition. Very good in very good jacket. First printing of Steinbeck's experimental work an amalgam of play and novel similar to OF MICE AND MEN. Expanding on the idea first developed in OF MICE AND MEN - adapting aspects of the theater into the structure of a novel - Steinbeck wrote this "play in story form" about the birth of a long-awaited child. The book was staged the same year with Rodgers and Hammerstein as producers. Neither the book nor the play did well but Steinbeck didn't seem to mind: "We were kicked around like dogs but I still want to do it. This shows a truly pure quality of stupidity. Just nuts. I'm so fascinated by everything about the theatre I don't really care if the show's a flop" Interview NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW 18 September 1952. 7.5'' x 4.75''.
