NY, Harcourt Brace, (1934). O'Hara's famous first novel, realistically detailing the three-day disintegration of Julian English in O'Hara's invented city of Gibbsville, PA. The nicest copy that we have seen, and probably the nicest copy there is. Fine in a fine, first issue dust jacket. Errata slip present. Appointment in Samarra was named to the Modern Library list of the best 100 novels of the 20th century. A high spot of American literature, an important debut, and a stunning, nearly unbelievable copy. Provenance: the Bruce Kahn collection. [#911104] SOLD
