Autobiography of Red
Anne Carson’s Autobiography of Red: A Novel in Verse is an inventive fusion of poetry, fiction and classical myth. It reimagines Geryon, the red-winged monster of Greek tradition, as a vulnerable modern boy and developing artist navigating family trauma, desire, heartbreak and self-discovery. The result is both an unconventional coming-of-age story and a lyrical meditation on identity and creativity.
Originally published in 1998, the work won the 1998 QSPELL A. M. Klein Prize for Poetry, was named a New York Times Notable Book of the Year and was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. This copy is the 2016 McClelland & Stewart trade-paperback edition, ISBN 9780771018138, with a number line consistent with an eighth printing produced in 2026.
Brand new softcover, issued without a dust jacket and now protected by clear removable plastic. Please review all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description.
