Green Shadows, White Whale [Trade + Proof]

Bradbury, Ray

Publication: New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1992. First Edition.

Notes: Bradbury's novelization of his experience as a young writer working on the Moby-Dick screenplay for John Houston in 1953. Illustrated by Edward Sorrel.

A novel "in which a screenwriter's hope to understand and integrate himself into the life of a small Irish town introduces him to a cast of eccentrics as inscrutable—and often as uncanny—as the Martians of his sf tales."—Clute and Grant, The Encyclopedia of Fantasy.

This is a set of the uncorrected proof in light green wrappers and the first trade issue.

Edition + Condition: First edition (stated). Proof: Near fine (a bit faded at the spine), inscribed, "Tom! Ray Bradbury. 11/19/98." First: Fine in a fine dust jacket, inscribed, "Tom Garner! Ray Bradbury. 6/27/92." A review slip is laid in.

The two books are housed in a custom black-cloth clamshell box commissioned by Garner.
