Some reading-wear and long cover creases. Dampstain near head of spine (visible on back cover) First paragraph(s): It's a long way between the Army, Harvard and Bowmansv…ille.

A whole helluva lot of ways. That's what I was thinking about, mostly, when I was hightailing it from Boston to Bowmansville, Vir-ginia. I was thinking I'd covered a lot of worlds, and the world I was coming back to probably wasn't the greatest idea ever devised by Jim Brace: yours truly. Size: 4.25" x 6.75". 194 pages. Text unmarked.

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 t…o 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.

SLAMMED.GOOD girls, even when they are as fresh a…nd pretty as Anita Carbone, are generally considered safe, incorruptible. Anita came from a good home. She wouldn't fall for the blandishments of college-boy Lotharios. She wouldn't listen to the offers of jaded libertines ready to pay anything for a thrill. And above all, she wouldn't throw away her lovely young body on bearded beatniks and dope-happy hipsters. . Or would she? That was the big question in the far-out mind of big Joe, a typical beat. When he managed to convert Anita, he was able to teach the good girl how to be very bad. The wild beat life with its free-wheeling love arrangements, its pursuit of perverse kicks, its weird zen-and-sex parties - all this Anita found an intoxicating release from her strait-laced home and her too-proper boy friend.But Joe had a hipster friend, Shank, whose twisted inclinations one day drove him to ravish Anita. Desperately she tried, to find escape - not only for herself, but for poor beat Joe!

He spent a long time absorbing every aspect of the interior of the coffee-house with the intensity of a person who had never been there before and who might never return. At last he rested his gaze on the small cup of coffee in front of him with the same concentration. And he decided that the coffee-house was the most logical spot in the world for him.
