Description

This is a copy of The Old Wives' Tale, the 1908 masterpiece written by the English author Arnold Bennett. It was first printed in the United States in 1908; in 1911, it was published as part of The Modern Library--this is a first edition from that series. The story covers the 70 years (1840 to 1905), in England and France, of the lives of two sisters. In 1998, it was ranked No. 87 in the list of 100 greatest English-language novels of the 20th century. It is 640 pages. Plain red boards, no jacket. Gold lettering on the spine, all intact. From page 137 to 173, there's a little brown spot on the outside edges of the pages. And there's a dent to the bottom right corner of the back cover. Other than that, it's pristine.
