Sobre este artículo
New York, New York, U.S.A.: E P Dutton, 1978. Book. N-Fine. Hardcover. First Edition/First Printing. A square solid tight clean very carefully read copy. The text block is lightly tanned, has some light board edge wear mostly at the top and heel of the dark blue cloth spine. The 10.95 priced jacket has some light rubbing wear, light edge wear, again mostly at the top and heel of the spine. Stated first edition, the correct book in the correct jacket. Basis for the movie. Blue cloth binding and gold lettering on spine. Not perfect as noted above but still a very nice copy of the first edition that had a unusual short printing run, rumored to be in the 35000 range, and is virtually impossible to find in this condition out here in the real world. THIS COPY IS IN MY POSSESSION AND NORMALLY SHIPS NEXT DAY..

Reseñas
El Sep 26 2007, Shawnee dijo:
This is the best book I have ever read!! If you want a story about the 70's this is one, full of symoblism and underlying truths and tragedy. The "undertoad" You may not always see it but its always there, and we all have those "undertoads" in our life. This book is full complete, from beginning to end, the end will not leave you questioning "what was Irving thinking?" He completed this book and didn't shirk on the details, its phenomonal!
