Book First Edition
Hard Back. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition Stated. 349 pages. Shelf wear to price unclipped dust jacket. Full-bound in white stuccoed boards, burgundy lettering. The American historian Henry Adams, grandson of one President and great-grandson of another, is looking for Miriam Talbott, a young American woman studying in Paris. Miriam is alive in ways Adams can scarcely remember being: bright, beguiling, talented, and attractive. She draws him out of the 'posthumous' life he has led since the suicide of his wife, Clover, seven years before. But when he goes looking for Miriam, no one at her given address has seen her. And when another woman's body is fished out of the Seine and identified as hers, Adams knows she is in trouble and needs his assistance.
