A Garden of Earthly Delights

Descripción

This is a good looking copy of Oate's second novel, which was a leading fiction contender for the National Book Award. Boards are covered in olive drab cloth with some fading along the uppermost edges. A bit of shelf-wear to back board and a tiny bump to front top corner. Titles are in good shape. The page block has light soil to all sides: Library Copy is stamped on bottom of block, and the top of the block has a stamp of a former owner; this same stamp is on the inside front red endpaper. The red paste-downs each have the remains of where previous dust jacket edge was glued down. These are hidden by the dust jacket, which is in very nice condition. The green used for the dust jacket, in this era, had a tendency toward sun fade, so the spine is a turquoise color but in bright colorful condition. No chips, tears or creasing. Price is intact. A tiny bit of rubbing to corners of the folds. Interior is clean, with no library evidence. The hinge/spine is a little bit loose. A 1" closed tear exists at the top of page 155. Despite the flaws, this is a nice copy. N° de ref. del artículo 000994
