Pulitzer Prize–winning American writer (1890–1980) best known for such enduring stories as ‘The Jilting of Granny Weatherall’ and the novel Ship of Fools. Souvenir typescript, one page on a 6 x 8 cardstock sheet, from A Christmas Story, beginning: “I thought how nearly all of these tender medieval songs and legends about this Child were concerned with trees, wood, timbers, beams, crosspieces; and even the pagan north transformed its great druidic tree festooned with human entrails into a blithe festival tree hung with gifts for the Child, and some savage old man of the woods became a rollicking saint with a big belly.” Signed at the conclusion in black felt tip. In fine condition. RR Auction COA.
