About This Item
Boston: Little Brown, 1967. Book. Near Fine. Quarter Cloth. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Boston, MA, Little Brown, 1967. First edition. 8vo. Black quarter cloth over olive green boards with gilt lettering embossed on spine, salmon colored, textured endpapers, 213 pp. This is an elegy for love that might have been, for love that almost was. It is about two losers whose capacity for love is blighted in part by their experience of life, but largely by their lack of nerve, this hesitant reach for the one gift within their grasp. Touching and unforgettable. Appears unread. Near fine in a very good dust jacket, protected by a mylar cover..
