About This Item
New York:: Poseidon Press,, (1993). SIGNED hardcover first edition -. Fine in fine dust jacket.. First printing. The author's first novel (second book), an unlikely, but beguiling love story. " Gloria is a modern-day 'snake oil' saleswoman, a quixotic entrepreneur who sells everything from metal detectors to aphrodisiac perfumes but whose real stock-in-trade is hope. . . She and her teenage daughter, Kim, drive throughout the Southwest, pulling their trailer home from town to town, just one step ahead of the postmaster general ('I imagined him as a successful mailman with epaulets') and the FDA. It is the only world Kim has ever known - until Arthur literally comes crashing into their lives, demolishing the trailer and taking Kim's heart hostage." SIGNED on the title page. 191 pp.
