RARE, DIFFICULT TO FIND: BOOK: Covered in Rust colored Balloon Cloth; Reddish topstain; Kent Endpapers; First Modern Library Edition, 1931, listed on Copyright page. DJ is covered in mylar; light… green with red trim; 190 titles listed on back; 95 cents price; has two short tears on top front also middle of spine seam; tanning on spine; chips on top and bottom spine edges (See Scans). All orange and beige Kent Endpapers complete. SYNOPSIS: The protagonist of the novel ignores all social conventions and specializes in seducing virgin country girls. In one notorious scene, a girl tries to wash embarrassing white stains off her dress after sexual intercourse with Sanin(e). Book was censored when it first came out. PLEASE NOTE: As sometimes happened with the Modern Library printings, the dust jacket "leaping torchbearer" is going to the left and has 190 titles listed at back (indicating First Edition), while the book cover has a leaping torchbearer going to the right (with a First Modern Library 1931 on copyright page). Despite these oddities, this is the actual a First Modern Library book and dust jacket of Sanine.
