Giddy, scathing, and dazzling" (The Wall Street Journal). An absolute "must-have" title for Paul Beatty collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed, dated (on the day of publication), and inscribed ("lined") in black pen-marker on the title page by the author: " 'So what exactly is our thing? ' 5th May 2016 Paul Beatty". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The inscription is the very last line of the novel.
