Signed
This signed paperback 1975 edition of Annie Dillard's "Pilgrim at Tinker Creek" was purchased at an estate sale on Lummi Island in the early 2010s. This copy of Dillard's Pulitzer Prize winning book holds extra value because she signed it (for one of her neighbors) while living on the Island during the mid to late 1970s, a place whose animate shorelines and forests helped inspire her debut 1992 novel "The Living", which tells the stories of a fictional group of 19th-Century European homesteaders and Lummi Indians who must struggle to endure the endemic rigors of the Pacific Northwest landscape. This vintage edition holds value for collectors and readers alike, showcasing the author's relatively brief but significant connection to Whatcom County and its residents.
