About This Item
San Francisco, CA, U.S.A.: Chronicle Books LLC, 1994. First Edition, First Printing 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Hilarious, outlandish, completely believable and absolutely irresistible, DANCER WITH BRUISED KNEES tells the story of photographer Sarah Blight who, in her fortieth year, falls into a 'depression so deep that not even the thought of sex could raise me from it.' Without apology, without sentimentality, this dark and viciously funny novel chronicles the worst year in a rough life, forcing the reader to laugh at each disaster. With taut, eloquent language and heart-stopping honesty, Lynne McFall creates a vision of the world that will make readers squirm and clutch at their chairs. DANCER WITH BRUISED KNEES is a tough, vital, remarkable work." (Robert Boswell). As new, unread copy, in fine, mylar-protected dust jacket. FF
