Where I'm Calling From by Raymond Carver [FIRST EDITION / FIRST PRINTING]

FIRST EDITION / FIRST PRINTING [1988] ATLANTIC MONTHLY PRESS

True U.S. First Edition / First Printing of Carver's final collection of short stories. 

Hardcover with Dust Jacket in excellent condition. 

Dust Jacket is excellent; Clean and vibrant with unclipped panels. 

Book looks and reads like new.  Cloth cover w/ gilt cover and spine is pristine.  Flyleaf page has name of orig. owner written in pen.  Otherwise, book is like new. 

The last story collection published during Carver's life (he died in 1988) contains most of his greatest hits from his earlier books, as well as seven stories that hadn't been collected up to that point.

The breadth of the collection makes these 37 stories an extremely complete map of Carver territory, of a particular area of America and of the specific texture of the people Carver writes about — their difficult attempts at survival in a world where happiness does not arrive wrapped up in neat packages but comes in far more peculiar parcels, if it comes at all.
