About This Item
(London): Little, Brown & Co, 1996. First British Edition. Hardcover. Fine/fine. Octavo, 372pp. About fine, with some mild age-toning to the pages. Still a crisp, seemingly unread copy in a fine dust jacket. Warmly INSCRIBED by Siddons to Patsy Dickey (sister-in-law of poet and novelist James Dickey - the two were very close) on the title page: "For my dearest Patsy - who is the constant star in my firmament - Love, Annie." A lovely association.
Reviews
On Sep 9 2007, Hazelwood_Booksellers said:
'Fault Lines' may be Anne Rivers Siddon's most powerful work since 'Colony', an utterly intriguing story of relationships, and of self. Ms. Siddon draws the reader into the intimate center of turmoil of three women; mother, daughter, and their sister/aunt. The story is woven around the confused heroine, Merritt, sister to Laura and mother to teenage Glynn. After an explosive family quarrel Glynn runs off from Atlanta, to her aunt Laura's home in Hollywood, where Laura pursues a declining career in the movies. After a Life's collision with the glitter of Hollywood as a backdrop, all three women find themselves on the road with a borrowed lodge in the Santa Cruz Mountains as their destination. As they confront each other and themselves, and their fault lines within reach an explosive breaking point, so do the fault lines buried deep beneath the ground under their lodge in this earthquake prone country. This novel is a nail-biter supreme that will keep you turning page after page until its unexpected climax.

About Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
