Item description from seller

Midwood 33-885. Vintage erotic paperback by Lawrence Block. Second printing but first with Rader cover. Glue had released leaving numerous pages loose but present. 2" split to foot of front hinge. Cover copy: GIRL IN A FRENZY Men envied Dan because of Allison. Even by Hollywood standards, Dan seemed to have everything-and he had Allison, too! As a sex symbol, the beautiful movie star was a dream of soft, willing sensuality. How was Dan to know that the promises her pliant body seemed to offer were promises never to be fulfilled? Allison wanted to love Dan, but she Couldn't. She was frigid: it was as cruel and simple as that. Frustrated, whiskey-soaked, sick of the substitute women he used, Dan hit bottom. He might. have stayed there for good if Marcia hadn't come along. With Marcia there were other problems, and always the thought of Allsion out there, waiting. First paragraph(s): I got off the subway at 86th and Broadway and clawed my way through the usual mob of people, hauling myself up the stairwell to the street. The air smelled good-even the soot and sweat and all the stinks of New York were good all of a sudden. I felt at home, and I hadn't felt like that since I left New York. It's a funny thing and it's a thing that never fails. If you start in New York you'll never have another home, no matter how long you're away or how many other burgs you hit. The subway was crowded and the air outside was stale and musty, but that didn't make a hell of a lot of difference. Second Printing. Size: 4.25" x 6.75". 174 pages. Text unmarked. Binding is delicate with some loose pages. Some age-toning to page and cover edges. Some reading-wear and bumping to corners. Illustrator: Paul Rader. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 12 oz. Category: Vintage Paperbacks::Sleaze 1960s; Inventory No: 034862.…
