	1	Roth, Henry; Kazin, Alfred (Introduction by), and Wirth-Nesher, Hana (Afterword by) Call It Sleep New York Farrar, Straus and Giroux; The Noonday Press 1991 0374522928 / 9780374522926 Reprint, 2000 Trade Paperback Very Good xx, 468 pp., bib. notes; 21 cm. First published, 1934. Near fine. Tight, clean copy. Light edgewear to wraps. "When Henry Roth published his debut novel Call It Sleep in 1934, it was greeted with considerable critical acclaim though, in those troubled times, lackluster sales. Only with its paperback publication thirty years later did this novel receive the recognition it deserves--and still enjoys. Having sold-to-date millions of copies worldwide, Call It Sleep is the magnificent story of David Schearl, the 'dangerously imaginative' child coming of age in the slums of New York. / Henry Roth (1906-1995) was born in the Austro- Hungarian province of Galitzia. He probably landed on Ellis Island in 1909 and began his life in New York on the Lower East Side, in the slums where Call It Sleep is set. He is the author as well of Shifting Landscapes, a collection of essays, and the Mercy of a Rude Stream tetralogy." - Publisher. Price: 4.75 USD
