London, Boston: Faber and Faber, 1982. Octavo, boards. First edition. "Dorothy, a failed mother and neglected, wife, secretly takes in Larry, an anthropoid amphibian who has escaped from the institute for Oceanographic Research and is being sought for the deaths of two of his keepers ... A sensitive portrait of alienation and disaffection with darkly fantastic overtones." - Stefan Dziemianowicz in Barron (ed), Fantasy and Horror (1999) 6-176. "Perhaps Ingalls' finest accomplishment in the novel is the unflappable gentleness of her tone, which records supernatural surprise and flaming horror simply, almost tranquilly." - Rob Latham, Necrofile: The Review of Horror Literature #7 (1993), p. 3. Clute and Grant (eds), The Encyclopedia of Fantasy (1997), p. 499. Remainder mark on front paste-down, a fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#107125)

London:: Faber & Faber,, (1982). Hardcover first edition -. Fine in a fine dust jacket (as new.). First printing. True first edition of a novel selected by the British Book Marketing Council as among the 20 greatest post-WWII American novels - this amazing short novel combines aspects of fairy tales, science fiction, and ho-hum reality - it has been described as a short book on how to keep house for a monster. While the 2017 award-winning film 'The Shape of Water' was not based on this title, there are some similarities, and those who loved that movie should appreciate this book as well.
