About This Item
New York: Ivan Oblensky, 1963. First American Edition . Hardcover in Dust Jacket. Very Good. 8vo (264 pages). A virtually mint copy of the First Printing of Didion’s first book, in an unclipped dust jacket with just a hint of wear to the upper right corner of the front face and the upper hinge edge of the spine. Else fine. The contents are fine with a touch of shelf wear to the upper and lower edges of the cloth. Truly inconsequential wear overall.
Synopsis
Joan Didion was born in California and lives in New York City. She is the author of five novels and seven previous books of nonfiction.
