About this Item

Cloth with dust-jacket, VG/VG, top edge has two small stains & some former damp is detected on underside of the jacket which is a bit chipped at top front cover, see image. This stated First American Edition with full number line is clothed in the British Weidenfeld & Nicolson dust-wrapper (!) with isbn printed as 0 297 77687; go figure. Either the Brits ran out of books or the Americans of dust-jackets. Nevertheless we have here a rare copy signed and inscribed on the half-title page -- see our photo. Research has not determined the identity of the recipient or even the likely spelling of her last name. Dunne's title for the book -- also the opening essay -- takes on a poignancy when we know that his & Joan Didion's adopted daughter would succumb to an early death in 2005, two years after her father, all of this finding it's way into Didion's 2011 "Blue Nights." This bookseller knew Quintana in college in the eighties. Seller Inventory # 2499

Shipping Terms:

We use the trusty old -- ahem -- USPS for domestic shipments unless otherwise requested and charge the current rate plus $1 for handling. We're in a very small town but if you request a different shipping method we'll try to honor that. Overseas Priority flat-rate envelopes begin at US$40.70 (with $4 handling charge included), medium flat-rate boxes are US$75.75 (with $4 handling charge included). All quoted shipping costs are based on a 4-pound package. The costs quoted for international shipping and handling should certainly be considered good-faith estimates ONLY. International shipments will be sent at the most cost-effective method possible. If the actual cost is reduced, we will not notify you. If it needs to be increased, we will contact you through ABEbooks and request an increase to cover our costs, which include postage materials and time. WE DO NOT MAKE MONEY ON SHIPPING!
