About This Item
New York, NY Alfred A. Knopf: Borzoi Books, 2008. Hardcover First Ed, so stated. First Ed, so stated. Fine in Very Near Fine DJ: Book shows binding square and secure; text clean. DJ shows only the mildest rubbing at the top and bottom of the frong hinge; else flawless; price intact; mylar-protected. Virtually 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 306pp. Hardback with DJ. This is an excellent novel: sly, sophisticated, funny, contemporary. It evokes a wonderful sense of place, reveals characters and their relationships in all their ambiguity and complexity (and what relationship is not complex and ambiguous?) and begins with the glorious premise: just how far can a misunderstanding unravel a marriage? It's worth reading just for the wise asides. I could not put this book down.
