ISBN10: 0385498195, ISBN13: 9780385498197, [publisher: Doubleday] Softcover Advance Reading Copies, sold together, of Colson Whitehead's 2nd & 3rd novels from 2001 & 2006. Paperbacks in Fine condition. "Immortalized in folk ballads, John Henry has been a favorite American hero since the mid-nineteenth century. According to legend, John Henry, a black laborer for the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad, was a man of superhuman strength and stamina. He proved his mettle in a contest with a steam drill, only to die of exhaustion moments after his triumph. In JOHN HENRY DAYS, Colson Whitehead transforms the simple ballad into a contrapuntal masterpiece. The narrative revolves around the story of J. Sutter, a young black journalist. Sutter is a 'junketeer,' a freeloading hack who roams from one publicity event to another, abusing his expense account and mooching as much as possible. It is 1996, and an assignment for a travel Web site takes Sutter to West Virginia for the first annual 'John Henry Days' festival, a celebration of a new U.S. postal stamp honoring John Henry. And there the real story of John Henry emerges in graceful counterpoint to Sutter's thoroughly modern adventure. As he explores the parallels between the lives of these two black men, and between the Industrial Age, which literally killed John Henry, and the Digital Age that is destroying J. Sutter's soul, Whitehead adds multiple dimensions to the myth of the ...
ISBN10: 0385498195, ISBN13: 9780385498197, [publisher: Doubleday] Hardcover First Edition First editions (first impressions) of Colson Whitehead's second novel John Henry Days are rarely offered for sale by UK-based sellers, but here we have a very good copy. Printed by Doubleday on good quality paper, and nicely bound with black and ecru boards and red endpapers, this copy feels largely unread, though there's quite a bit of dust spotting along the top edge of the pages when viewed as a block, along with a smaller number of foxing marks on the outer and bottom edges. Also there's a few small superficial marks where it looks like the outer and bottom edges have been lightly pressed with a fingernail. The dust jacket is intact and again has just some minor marks of shelf wear and handling. Please take a look at the photos to be supplied. All in all, a handsome copy of a powerful novel: a good way to read it; the illustrated section headings are particularly pleasing. [Bridport, United Kingdom] [Publication Year: 2001]
