Description: Hardcover with Dust Jacket. First Edition. Half binding with gray paper and black fabric. Stamped, silver lettering to spine. The Stonemason is "a profoundly moving drama set in Louisville, Kentucky in the 1970s, concerning several generations of a black family. McCarthy's narrator, Ben, reveals a painful episode in his family's history, grounding us at the same time in the beautiful dynamic between him and his grandfather, Papaw. Ben, Ben's father, and Papaw are all stonemasons, but in descriptions of the trade we learn as much about this family's capacity for love as we do about constructing sound foundations for houses, barns and bridges. Papaw's knowledge about stonemasonry is analogous to his deep spiritual wisdom, and Ben recognizes both as he looks back on his apprenticeship in the trade at which I thoughtmyself a master and of which I stood in darkest ignorance." -ABE Very Good in very good dustjacket. Binding tight.
