Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. Gold "Autographed Copy" sticker pasted on the spine. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Joshua Ferris' "Then We Came To The End". His first, and still his best, novel. "Written with confidence in the tricky-to-pull-off first-person plural, the collective fishbowl perspective of the 'we' voice nails the dynamics of cubicle culture: The deadlines, the gossip, the elaborate pranks to break the boredom, the joy of discovering free food in the breakroom. Arch, achingly funny, and surprisingly heartfelt, it's a view of how your work becomes a symbiotic part of your life. Praised as 'the Catch-22 of the business world' and 'The Office meets Kafka' " (Brad Thomas Parsons). "A terrific first novel. Awfully funny" (Nick Hornby). An absolute "must-have" title for Joshua Ferris collectors. This Autographed Copy is very boldly and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Joshua Ferris. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. Finalist for the National Book Award in 2007 for "Then We Came To The End". Finalist for the Booker Prize in 2014 for "To Rise Again At A Decent Hour". Joshua Ferris was selected as one of the "20 Writers Under 40" of the decade by The New Yorker Magazine. One of the most brilliant writers of our time. A fine copy.
