Description

McGuane, Thomas

To Skin a Cat

Hard Cover. New York: E.P. Dutton, 1986. First Edition. Fine / Dust Jacket Included.

First edition, first printing. Signed and dated McGuane in the year of publication on the front free endpaper. Publisher's ivory cloth and black paper boards, lettered in copper; in the original brown dust jacket designed by Fred Marcellino, lettered in black, white, orange, and pale green. A fine copy; unclipped dust jacket, with a hint of faint sunning to the spine, else bright and clean. A beautiful copy, inscribed by McGuane. To Skin a Cat is McGuane's first collection of short stories that were originally published in a variety of literary magazines. Specifically, it includes "The Millionaire," "A Man in Louisiana," "The Road Atlas," "Like a Leaf," and "Flight," among others. In classic McGuane fashion, each story features a masculine, Hemingway-esque protagonist, although the plots themselves range in style and theme. The collection is united, as the publishers explain, by the common theme of "the human heart under fire."
