About This Item
New York: Random House, 2005. First Edition, First Printing. . Hardcover. Very Good/Fine. The award-winning Irving's eleventh novel is the story of actor Jack Burns. Jack's mother, Alice, is a Toronto tattoo artist; his father, William, a church organist addicted to being tattooed. When Jack is four, he and Alice travel to several North Sea ports searching for his father, who has disappeared. The search for his father and his relationships with older women shape his later life as an actor in Hollywood in this melancholic, even sad, but still immensely comic novel. Previous owner protected the dustjacket with a dj protector fastened to the covers with narrow strips of strapping tape. One of the four strips has pulled loose, slightly damaging the front cover near the upper edge, and it is likely if the other strips loosen the same damage will occur again. O/w boards and text are clean and unmarked, tight and square. The dustjacket is well-protected and is without tears, creasing or chipping. It is not price-clipped and conceals the tape-damage on the cover.
