New York: Carroll & Graf, 1991. First Thus . Hard Cover - Cloth Spine. Fine/Fine Minus. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Kersti O'Leary (jacket cover). How to interpret the body-language of fly-like aliens? They claim to have come to Earth in order to "remember" it. That "memory" involves matter transference, however, with landmarks and entire cities disappearing, only to reappear on Mars! 220 pages. CONDITION: The book itself is bright, tight, square, and unmarked, with negligible shelf-wear. Its vivid dustjacket - now in a clear mylar (removable) protective cover, and the CORRECT cover scan for this edition - is complete (not price-clipped), unmarked, and uncreased, with light edge- and corner-wear. (Note: The color-fade in my back cover scan is from glare off the mylar protective cover - not rubbing on the jacket panel itself.)
