LOT 3504
TOOLE, John Kennedy. A Confederacy of Dunces. London: Allen Lane, 1981. First U.K. edition, 8vo (194 x 124mm.) (Mild toning.) Original cream cloth (browned to spine, extremities bumped), dust-jacket (minor marginal crease, small mark to upper panel, fading). Note: partly due to his lack of success in finding a publisher for his novel, John Kennedy Toole committed suicide in 1969, aged thirty-one. His mother sent the manuscript to novelist Walker Percy and the novel was eventually published to great acclaim, winning the Pulitzer Prize in 1981.
