This Room & this Gin & these Sandwiches
Edmund Wilson, 1937
WILSON, Edmund (1895-1972). This Room & this Gin & these Sandwiches. New York: The New Republic, 1937.
Presentation copy for Nathanael West, inscribed and signed on the front free endpaper: "Dear Pep West: I saw the Perlmans the other day & was reminded of the fact that I had never sent you a copy of this play (Beppo & Beth) for which you supplied me with so much valuable data. Also, they tell me that you had a play on last fall which wasn't so well received by the reviewers, and I thought it might cheer you up to see some plays which have never been produced at all. Am looking forward to your novel. As ever / Edmund Wilson / Feb. 16, 1939." Nathanael West's sister was married to the humorist and screenwriter, S.J. Perelman. An interesting window into the intertwined lives of playrights and critics in Depression-era New York.
Octavo. Partially unopened. One ad leaf. Original wrappers (toned, backstrip starting to detach). Custom clamshell box.
