Franklin Center. 1979. 441 pp. Illustrated by Ann Grifalconi. Near fine, light scuffing to foredge, Franklin notes laid in, no dust jacket as issued. Signed by the author on the second free endpaper. The book has been the target of bans due to sexual and racist content. This historically inaccurate and highly controversial fictionalization of an enslaved black man’s experience was written by a white author. Nonetheless, the book was a Pulitzer Prize winner, making this a beautiful addition to the library of any Pulitzer Prize collector, banned book collector, or collector of the author’s works. weight: 2.5 lb.
