Don DeLillo

Great Jones Street

Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1973.

First Edition, First Printing. Octavo. 265 pp. Quarter black cloth over charcoal paper boards, front panel and spine stamped in metallic purple and red foil. Original illustrated dust jacket present, minor edge rubbing, dust jacket unclipped.

First printing of Don DeLillo's third novel. Tracking the abrupt psychological withdrawal of a rock-and-roll icon into a desolate New York room, the novel serves as a brilliant, early postmodern dissection of corporate fame, media saturation, and underground subversion. A sharp, clean copy of an essential 1970s literary milestone.
