Salman Rushdie - Midnight's Children - 1st 1st - Soon a Netflix Series - Booker

Description: Rushdie, Salman - Midnight’s Children - Alfred A Knopf: New York, 1981 - First American Edition / First Printing - “First American Edition” stated on the copyright page as required in order to denote the first printing of the first edition. “I am the sum total of everything that went before me, of all I have been seen done, of everything done-to-me. I am everyone everything whose being-in-the-world affected was affected by mine. I am anything that happens after I'm gone which would not have happened if I had not come.” The book has a pair of bumps, some light shelf wear, faint sunning and a gift inscription on the front end page. The boards remain attractive, the spine gilt is bright, the binding is square and very firm, and internally the copy is very clean save for the aforementioned inscription. The price clipped dust jacket has the almost inevitable sunning to the spine and to the upper area of the front panel, light soiling, and some creases with a small shallow chip to the upper edge of the rear. All together a still solid example of a notoriously difficult to locate book in acceptable condition. Winner of the 1981 Man Booker Prize. Winner of the special 1993 Booker of Bookers award. Repeatedly voted the best Booker award winner in nearly every poll conducted and widely considered one of the cornerstone works of fiction from the second half of the 20th century. Adapted once in 2012 for film with Rushdie voicing the narrator. This work has been optioned by Netflix and is in development to become a series. All books are offered with a full 30 day postage paid return policy. All books which are in dust jackets will be mailed with a clear archival dust jacket protector fitted. Shipping costs can be combined if multiple purchases are made. Items will be packaged and shipped within one business day unless otherwise noted. Please always feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.
