First trade edition. An interesting collaboration between a noted playwright and artist, originally published in a very limited and expensive edition in 1985. While ostensibly a book for children, the spare text of Mamet's prose poem effectively offsets the evocative lithographs of Sultan; the theme of this poem is the love of your family, the love that protects you from the cold. Large format, unpaginated. Fine in a very near fine dust jacket. .ISBN # 0-8021-10843 |
