About This Item
New York: Pantheon, 2004. First Edition, Full Number Line . Hardcover. Very Good+/Very Good+. This listing is for two by Jin, sold as a pair at the listed price with one-book priced domestic media mail shipping. "WT" has a priced jacket, 352 pages. The book's sole notable flaw is a good trace of wear at the head and foot of spine and a tiny, nearly invisible smudge at top of text's foredge. The jacket, which was made a 1/2" shorter than the book, is crisp and attractive in new mylar wrapper. With this we include a copy of "Waiting," dustjacketed, priced publisher's edition, with 3 through 9 number code. National Book Award sticker front panel. Clean, handsome book, bright text. Jacket has trace edgewear. In mylar wrapper. *We feel that books offered for internet sale should be described thoroughly and accurately. We assure the buyer that books listed by Brass Dolphin are so described, and graded, using the strict, traditional standards. *
