About This Item
New York: Simon & Schuster, 1947. First Edition. Cloth frayed and soiled; only good, but an association copy, inscribed to her editior, Peter Schwed, “To Peter - who wouldn’t take ‘no’ for an answer. Gratefully, Laura Z. Hobson.” Made into a film of the same title, directed by Elia Kazan and starring the not very Jewish-looking Gregory Peck, which was, of course, the point.
