One of Peter Cameron's finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. An austerely elegant production by Michael Ian Kaye: Small-size volume format. Pictorial hard boards with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Text by Peter Cameron. Printed on archival stock paper in the United States to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Peter Cameron's "The Weekend". A gem of a novel. "Beautifully controlled horror. Tensions develop rapidly on all fronts: Between the generations, between new lovers, between the past and the present, between those with hope and those without hope. And just when you think that the story of this weekend is all memory and conversation, things start to happen. This brief novel confirms that Peter Cameron is one of our very best writers" (Brian Kenney). The novel as novella (or long short story) is often dismissed as a lesser achievement by almost all national literatures, particularly so in America, where every self-anointed ambitious writer's stated goal is to write The Great American Novel, which aligns with the overall American tendency to saturate and overwhelm rather than to restrain and distill. No one seems to have noticed that it is actually harder to pull off the latter. Peter Cameron's novels - some considerably longer than "The Weekend" - belong in the small shelf of books such as "The Pilgrim Hawk" by Glenway Wescott and "Mrs. Caliban" by Rachel Ingalls, both of which are now considered among the masterpieces of 20th-century American literature. By now, it has become a banality to say of a writer like Peter Cameron that he is underrated and underappreciated, by readers, that is, who should know better because each of his books comes with genuine, sincerely felt praise from fellow writers, who do know better. The basis of the film adaptation by Brian Skeet, with an all-star cast in Gena Rowlands, Brooke Shields, Deborah Kara Unger, and D. B. Sweeney. An absolute "must-have" title for Peter Cameron collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Peter Cameron. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER PETER CAMERON TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0374287392. Signed by Author.…
