A propos de cet article

FSG, New York, 2007. First edition. First printing. Hardbound. A pristine unread copy, purchased new and never opened, very fine/very fine in all respects. This book quickly went through multiple printings. This is the first printing with full number line down to the 1. Comes with archival-quality dust jacket cover. Shipped in well padded box. You cannot find a better copy. The time frame of the novel is from 1963 to 1970, with a coda set in 1983. One of the novel's protagonists is Bill Houston, who was the main character in Johnson's 1983 debut novel Angels. Tree of Smoke won the National Book Award for Fiction and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction. Norman Rush, in The New York Review of Books, said: "Tree of Smoke is an ambitious, long, dense, daunting novel sited at the heart of a great American evil, the Vietnam War . Like the war itself, Tree of Smoke delivers an intense experience of loss, shame, futility, confusion all without benefit of editorializing.".
