Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Stated First Edition, 1st printing. Bright & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition. Erstwhile remainder has slight foxing & red line on top edge, o/w unmarked. "A HANDBOOK FOR VISITORS FROM OUTER SPACE is a novel that gives us--through the eyes and be…ing of Cyrus Quince, a young American boy filled with classic yearnings but growing up in a no-longer-classic world--a sharply fresh vision of our time. [] A war has been going on, but no one knows how or when it started. On the lawn of the Old Generals' Home, on the outskirts of Winston City, on the American eastern seacoast, the elderly men discuss how improbable, how utterly unlike former wars, this one seems to be: no enemy, no identifiable troops, but so much talk of strategy and being ever on the alert, and in the population at large an insistent feeling of anxiety coupled with a feverish gaiety. For many, the war persists only as a rumor, and others do not even believe in its existence--[] We follow Cyrus on a journey both fabulous and familiar, through a childhood idyllically tidy, from which all trouble has been expunged; through prep school days at Fifield Academy--first love and first betrayal . . . [] As we follow him on his fragile and uncertain quest for love, for a vital identity and authenticity, we begin to piece together a portrait of this generation's connection to our still worshipped but receding traditions: family, religion, patriotism, the ideal of a principled life." [jacket copy] "Extraterrestrial beings won't discover in the pages of this accomplished first novel quite all the wonders of our fated planet but they'll feast their senses on vividly caught glimpses. . . The novel is thoroughly engaging and introduces an unmistakably gifted new voice in command of stylistic finesse, lively fancy and infectious buoyancy."--Publishers Weekly. "The prose is transparent, its burden complex--a curious design, a fable-like shiver, a humor that casts a deep and subtle shadow."--Joseph McElroy. Near-pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp deckle edges, a square & tight spine, wrapped in an evocative NF jacket covered in archival mylar. Quite presentable.
