Add to basketFIRST EDITION, a few faint spots to prelims, pp. 315, [4, ads], crown 8vo, original pink cloth, backstrip lettered in black and gently faded, top edge slightly dusty, edges very faintly spotted, free endpapers with faint browning to inner margin, dustjacket with browned backstrip panel slightly chipped at head, very good. Scarce…, her second novel - a 'drama of human character', with the inter-generational vendettas that drive the narrative played out against the setting of a 'great provincial emporium' (blurb). The author was educated at St. Anne's College, Oxford; the greater part of her writing career was as a playwright, including as a scriptwriter for the BBC - her 'break-out' novel came with the Haiti-set 'Marassa and Midnight' in 1968.
