Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition - First Printing. First edition stated, as called for. A very fine copy, looks and feels unread, in a fine dust jacket. The notoriously fragile dw shows minor signs of shelfwear, such as light rubbing and yellowing to the rear white panel, and a couple tiny closed tears, and nicks to the front corners, head of spine, and bottom front panel near the spine. Basis for the film starring William Hurt, Kathleen Turner and Geena Davis in her Academy Award winning role. Great book, great film. Seller Inventory # 012108
