About this Item

Very Good (covers nice; contents clean & tight); very nice d/j. A great copy! 8vo., boards in dust jacket; 210 pages First Edition, first printing. Signed on the title page by all 13 of the original women who shared the necklace and uncommon thus. One day in Ventura, California, Jonell McLain saw a beautiful diamond necklace in a jewelry store window and wondered: Why are personal luxuries so plentiful yet accessible to so few? What if we shared what we desired? Several weeks, dozens of phone calls, and one great leap of faith later, Jonell and twelve other women bought the necklace together with the goal of sharing it. "Part charm, part metaphor, part mirror, the necklace weaves in and out of each woman's life, reflecting her past, defining her present, making promises for her future"- from the dust jacket. This is the hardbound edition, not the paperback.
