Summer in Williamsburg

New York: Vanguard, 1934. First Edition.

The author's first novel, taking its place next to Henry Roth's "Call It Sleep," published the same year, as a classic of Jewish-American life in New York during the Great Depression. Fuchs would go on to write two more novels in the same vein, today generally thought of as a trilogy collectively called "The Brooklyn Novels" or "The Williamsburg Trilogy."

Near Fine in a Very Good, lightly spine faded dust jacket. Tiny chips at the spine ends and flap folds. An attractive copy of a very difficult title.
