Description:
New York: The Ecco Press, 1990. First Edition, First Printing. . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Oates' story is the first of what The Ecco Press planned as a series of imaginative collaborations between authors and works of art; in this case between Oates and the 1891 painting by Fernand Khnopff with the same title as the story and which serves as cover art on the dustjacket. The story chronicles the life of an upstate New York woman, born Edith Margaret Freilicht in 1890 and known as Calla in the small town where she lives. A beautiful, eccentric individual who is a puzzle to her husband and children and whose life becomes defined by her association with an itinerant black water diviner and the community's superstitious racism. Boards and text are clean, tight, square; dustjacket shows only the slightest surface and edgewear. Collectable.
