first edition Hardcover
1959 · Boston
by MARTIN, Ruth M.
Boston: Meador, 1959. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. First edition. Corners slightly bumped, near fine in very good dustwrapper with a modest chip on the rear panel and some other light wear. We can find no biographical information about the author but strongly suspect this presumably autobiographical novel about a young housewife in the South is by an African-American woman. Aside from the subject matter, the publisher often published work by African-Americans. Very scarce. (Inventory #: 45262)
