New York, NY: Triangle, 1953. Book. Very Good. Cloth. Reprint. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. New York, NY, Triangle, 1953. 4th Printing. 8vo. Light reddish-brown cloth with text and beautiful artwork in deep red on spine and front board, red edges on text block, 301 pp. In a frank, direct fashion, the author reveals the inside story of hospital life and the deep sacrifices of its staff. Most appealing is the handling of Celia's wild urge to live freely and unconventionally and her final awakening to fact that every ounce of true happiness must be paid for with an equal ounce of heartbreak. Minor dog-earing and price clipped on dustjacket, owner name on endpaper, paper tanned with age. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket, protected by a mylar cover..
