About This Item
Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1985. First Printing, First Edition Thus. . Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. Wolff's third book, his second collection of short stories that have won him wide-spread praise for his lean, cool prose about ordinary people faced with moral decisions; bottom corners of boards slightly bumped, o/w boards and text are clean, tight, square; dustjacket shows wear around edges and at corners, some light scratching, but still whole without significant flaws; a collectable copy of a quite scarce book.
