Stephen King – Cujo – First US Edition 1981
£175.00
A first edition, first printing published by Viking in 1981. A near fine book with some rubbing to the edges. No inscriptions – one neat previous owner’s blindstamp to the front endpaper. In a very good unclipped wrapper with some creasing to the spine tips and corners and to the top edge.
Cujo’s name was based on the alias of Willie Wolfe, one of the men responsible for orchestrating Patty Hearst’s kidnapping and indoctrination into the Symbionese Liberation Army. Stephen King discusses Cujo in On Writing, referring to it as a novel he “barely remembers writing at all.” King wrote the book during the height of his struggle with alcohol addiction. King goes on to say he likes the book and wishes he could remember enjoying the good parts as he put them on the page.
