Sobre este artículo
Orlando, Florida, U.S.A.: Harcourt, 1992. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good+/Very Good+. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. The story of an African woman coping with the trauma of genital mutilation. Stated first edition. Second printing with a letter line running "B" thru "E." A clean, apparently unread copy with no writing, marks, underlining, or bookplates. No remainder marks. Spine is tight and crisp. Boards are flat and true, and the corners are square. The main flaw with the book would be some browning to the pages. There is also a very small (1/4" x 1" area) of damage to the bottom of pages 233 and 234. Dust jacket is not price-clipped and shows minor shelf wear to the edges and some minor browning. This collectible, very good +, first edition/first printing copy is protected with an archival mylar dust jacket cover. Satisfaction guaranteed!
