This hardcover edition of William Fifield’s debut novel, “The sign of Taurus,” published in 1960 by Holt, Rinehart, and Winston, offers collectors a glimpse into the early literary career of a writer who would go on to become a respected voice in American fiction. Despite some expected wear to the dust jacket and hardcover, the clean pages and secure binding attest to the care with which this copy has been preserved over the decades.
Set in the author’s native New England, the novel explores themes of family, identity, and the complexities of human relationships through the lens of the astrological sign of Taurus.
