Description: From the Estate of Barbara Walters. First edition, deluxe limited issue. 87 of 775 copies signed by the author, presentation copy. Text printed in blue and black. 1 vols. 4to. Full vellum, leather label. Covers mottled as usual. Fine. Tall octavo. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, *Strange Interlude* included many innovative stage techniques such as stream-of-consciousness soliloquies and asides. The limited edition elaborately prints these interludes in blue ink, while the rest of the text is in black (the trade edition has all text in black). I also have the Limited Edition, numbered, presentation copy of The Hairy Ape signed by Eugene O'Nneil in 1929. I'd give a discount on both. Strange Interlude (almost three times normal play length) has as its central character a beautiful woman who blames her emotional sterility on the death of a lover killed in the war, but nevertheless manages to dominate the lives of three men—her husband, a lover, and her feebly genteel bachelor uncle. Very rare and with historical provenance. See all the books in Barbara Walters' Estate collection here: https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/StoreFrontDisplay?cid=83415567
