first edition Hardcover
(1980) · NY
by SMILEY, Jane
NY: Harper & Row. (1980). The first book by the highly-regarded author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning A Thousand Acres. This copy belonged to the author Robb Forman Dew -- who provided dust jacket blurbs for Smiley's next two books -- and bears her ownership signature. A little dampstaining to lower spine and foxing to top edge; near fine in a very good, dampstained dust jacket with light chipping at the crown. A nice association copy, albeit not a presentation copy. Unless otherwise noted, our first editions are first printings. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine. (Inventory #: 019624)
