Signed THE NETANYAHUS Joshua Cohen rare 1st printing Pulitzer Prize Winner 2022

Description: The scarce 1st print of the highly collectable latest novel from award-winning American author and short-story writer Joshua Cohen (his earlier novels include 'Witz ', 'Book of Numbers ' and 'Moving Kings '). On 9 May 2022 this novel was named the winner of The Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for 2022. This also comes with a rare bookplate signed by Joshua Cohen. 'The Netanyahus : An Account of a Minor and Ultimately Even Negligible Episode in the History of a Very Famous Family ', published by New York Review Books on 22 June 2021, US 1st edition/1st printing, large modern paperback, [viii] + 239 pages. This copy comes with a rare signed loose bookplate (from the author's UK publisher, Fitzcarraldo). Internally in As New unread condition, externally in fine condition with small scuff to head of the spine (see photos 5 & 7), full number line from 1 to 10 on the copyright page to confirm this is the US true 1st printing. There is no hardback edition of this novel; both this US edition, and the UK edition published by Fitzcarraldo Editions, were only available in paperback. ** This US 1st printing is proving to be scarce as well as very collectable since its Pulitzer win. I have only ever seen 1 actual signed copy of this book, which a US dealer had for sale that sold quickly, a leftover from the author's small book tour when it was originally released. I am not aware of any signed copies of the UK Fitzcarraldo edition being available at all - it is thus rare to have the author's signature via this loose bookplate ** WINNER OF THE 2022 PULITZER PRIZE FOR FICTION Corbin College, not quite upstate New York, winter 1959-1960: Ruben Blum, a Jewish historian--but not an historian of the Jews--is co-opted onto a hiring committee to review the application of an exiled Israeli scholar specializing in the Spanish Inquisition. When Benzion Netanyahu shows up for an interview, family unexpectedly in tow, Blum plays the reluctant host to guests who proceed to lay waste to his American complacencies. Mixing fiction with nonfiction, the campus novel with the lecture, The Netanyahus is a wildly inventive, genre-bending comedy of blending, identity, and politics that finds Joshua Cohen at the height of his powers.
