About This Item
New York:: Coward-McCann,, (1966.). Hardcover first edition -. Just about fine in a good only dustjacket (fading to the spine of the spine, small chip to lower edge of front cover, closed tear to back cover, other minor edgewear to dj.). First US printing. The Pulitzer prize winning author's rather uncommon second novel - a domestic satire and an incisive look at Hollywood (the 'nowhere city' of the title) and the effect of its surface glitz on the attitudes and lives of the young married couple who move there from the more restrained Harvard-dominated city of "Cambridge-on-the-Charles." Cover praise from Louis Simpson, Robert Creeley and more. 276 pp. Dust jacket by Paul Bacon.
