A Fine book in a Near Fine dust jacket, first edition, first printing of The Road (Alfred A. Knopf, 2006), Cormac McCarthy’s Pulitzer Prize–winning novel of survival, fatherhood, and hope in a devastated world. This is the true first printing, confirmed by the complete number line and the original unclipped dust jacket with the $24.00 price.

The book is Fine — tight, square, crisp, and unread, with clean pages, sharp corners, and no writing, marks, or remainder stamp. A beautifully preserved copy.

The dust jacket is Near Fine, unclipped, showing only the light rub marks commonly found on the matte black surface of this edition. No tears, chips, or creases. The jacket has been protected in an archival Brodart sleeve to maintain its presentation.

The Road remains one of McCarthy’s most powerful and enduring works, and high‑grade first printings are increasingly sought after by collectors of modern American literature.
