About this Item
First edition. 267 pp. Bound in publisher's red cloth with black lettering. Apparently bound without photo frontispiece (a variant?), else Near Fine with a few small stains to back board, former owner's name on front free endpaper. A clean bright copy, sturdily bound. Lacking jacket. A legendary rarity; the warehouse holding copies of this self-published novel without the letter "e" (a lipogram) burned down shortly after publication. Seller Inventory # 140943968
