Jeanette Winterson, born 1959, has become one of our most
respected female authors. Literary acclaim and prizes abound. Her first novel is
generally regarded as something of a modern classic. Collectors are sure to
follow where prizes for literature tread, and this author is no different. The
almost perennial rule of the first three books being the rarest and most
valuable holds true once again. Oranges was a paperback original so a fine first
edition is even more difficult than normal given the fragile nature of the
publication. After these books the rest get much easier, and cheaper, so much so
that more serious collectors may want to consider only signed copies.
In short, an author who has a strong future, in both literary
and collectability terms. Her legacy seems already assured which should give
some confidence for future popularity and value.
