Advance uncorrected proof of the first edition. Signed by Toni Morrison on the half-title page. Bound in publisher's beige wraps printed in black, with publication information handwritten on the front cover, and photocopied publisher's material stapled inside front cover. We have had a different variant of this proof in the past, that one having blue wraps, a different layout to the front cover and being taller. Very Good with toning and light wear to wraps. A very scarce format of one of the author's most beloved books (pun intended.).

Song of Solomon is a 1977 novel by Toni Morrison. The book was awarded the National Book Critics Circle Award for fiction. It follows the life of an African-American man called Macon 'Milkman' Dead III, as he grows from an odd, self-indulgent youth into a powerful and understanding man.
