This 1975 first edition of Jerzy Kosinski’s “Cockpit: A Novel” offers a gripping exploration of the human psyche through the lens of a troubled young man’s descent into madness. Kosinski, a Polish-American novelist known for his controversial and boundary-pushing works, delivers a haunting narrative that delves into themes of identity, alienation, and the fragility of the mind. The novel’s protagonist, a nameless individual, grapples with his own twisted perceptions of reality, blurring the lines between truth and delusion. Kosinski’s masterful prose and unflinching examination of psychological turmoil have cemented this work as a seminal piece of 20th-century literature. Despite its well-preserved pages and secure binding, the wear on the dust jacket and hardcover serve as a testament to the novel’s enduring impact and the many hands it has passed through over the decades. This copy presents a unique opportunity for collectors and readers alike to immerse themselves in Kosinski’s provocative and thought-provoking literary world.
