Sobre este artículo

Tehanu won the 1990 Nebula Award for Best Novel and the 1991 Locus Award for Best Fantasy Novel. In its review, the New York Times noted that "The astonishing clearsightedness of 'Tehanu' is in its recognition of the necessary and life-giving contributions of female magic - sometimes disguised as domesticity" (20 May 1990). Octavo. Original black cloth-backed orange boards, spine and rear cover lettered in bronze, front cover lettered in blind, orange endpapers. With dust jacket. With 2 full-page maps in the text. Light fading to cloth in places, contents fresh; jacket with light rubbing, still sharp and bright, unclipped: a near-fine copy in like jacket.
