Local Anaesthetic - 1st US Edition/1st Printing
An attractive first US edition in fine condition in just about fine dust-jacket. Signed by author Günter Grass on the title page;
Günter Wilhelm Grass is a poet, playwright, illustrator, graphic artist, sculptor and recipient of the 1999 Nobel Prize in Literature.
"There is little in Grass's previous books to prepare us for this one. Where they were sprawling and self-indulgent, Local Anaesthetic is lean and ironic. The author unmercifully satirizes the impotence, the masochism, the desperate expedients, that make the lot of the liberal such a hard one." (New York Times) ; 8vo; [iv], 284 pages; Signed by Author.
