'If only this baby were a boy what a great career he would have,' mourned the father, noting the auspicious date on which 'September Monkey' arrived. But the mother--shortly to become a widow and a despised Christian as well--went about preparing her 'girl-boy' baby for the unheard-of experience of education, somehow realizing that if a new day for women in Korea were to come she would have to make it." ; SIGNED presentation by the author in English and Korean ; appendix with details on Asian astrology ; brown and black cloth with white lettering, in somewhat soiled dustjacket ; foxing ; marks of a paperclip on a few pages ; fore-edge untrimmed ; VG/VG
