About This Item
New York: The Dial Press, 1996. Book. As New. Hardcover. 1st Edition. First Edition/First Printing. Hardcover in unclipped dustjacket. 259 pages. The Granta 20 author's second novel. Unforgettable and tender. Nominated for the National Book Award. Initial first printing of 17,500 copies, and it was quickly sent back to the printers. Just a touch of edgewear to the top dj flaps and the spine. Very light. Otherwise a near fine dustjacket over a fine, unread book. From my smoke-free collection..
