8vo. [13], 4-306, [4] pp. Navy cloth with author's initials stamped in gold with green rules above and below on the front board, spine with gold, purple, and blue lettering and three green rules; purple topstain, blue-green endpapers and pastedowns. Price of $5.95 on the front flap of the dust jacket. Jacket design by Roy Kuhlman. Philip Roth produced acclaimed fiction for over fifty years. This is his only novel to feature a female protagonist, and concerns her struggles in a small mid-western town in the 1940s. A nice copy of Roth's third book. Very Good with residue from an old bookplate on the free front endpaper, slight discoloration to pages 3 and 4, and a small mark on the rear endpaper in a Near Fine dust jacket with a tiny crease to the front flap.
