About This Item
W. W. Norton & Company, 1958. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good DJ. Later printing, very good + hardcover shows some light shelf wear and previous ownership sticker at front pastedown, in very good dust jacket (clipped at bottom of front flap) that shows light rubbing and soil and edge wear that includes closed tears and open chipping. 285 pages. Still a pleasing copy of this noted novel about "..men and women in Southeast Asia--people making mistakes, people being a little corrupt, people trapped by the beauty of a land or a woman, people being bought cheap with champagne and caviar.
