About This Item
Brick colored cloth covered hardcover boards with red lettering on front cover and spine. Deep red colored endpapers. Hard cover has no defects detected.
DJ has very mino edge wear at top and bottom of spine. DJ is not price clipped.
Sombrero fallout is as brief as it is bizarre. The conceit is not entirely coherent, but it is original, sincere, and interesting. The novel is a great catharsis for the author, as well as being a very heartfelt and poignant account of a difficult romantic breakup.
A beautiful copy in excellent condition.
