Sobre este item
New York, New York, U.S.A.: Alfred A., Knopf, Inc., 2015. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Signed by author on title page in black fountain ink.EARLY WARNING opens in 1953 with the Langdons at a crossroads. Their stalwart patriarch Walter, who with his wife had sustained their Iowa farm for three decades, has suddenly died, leaving their five children looking to the future. Only one will remain to work the land, while the others scatter to Washington, DC, California, and everywhere in between. As the country moves out of postwar optimism through the Cold War, the social and sexual revolutions of the 1960s and '70s, and then into the unprecedented wealth-for some-of the early '80s, the Langdon children will have children of their own: twin boys who are best friends and vicious rivals; a girl whose rebellious spirit takes her to the notorious Peoples Temple in San Francisco; and a golden boy who drops out of college to fight in Vietnam-leaving behind a secret legacy that will send shockwaves through the Langdon family into the next generation. Capturing an indelible period in America through the lens of richly drawn characters we come to know and love, Early Warning is an engrossing, beautifully told story of the challenges-and rich rewards-of family and home, even in the most turbulent of times. As new, first edition, first printing, in near-fine (as new, but with a small patch of paper loss to front cover), mylar-protected dust jacket. [Not remainder-marked or price-clipped] BUND
