Description:
Hardcover first edition, published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1978. The dust jacket is intact and is not price clipped. 88 pages. Essay by the author of 'On Photography', among many other non-fiction and fiction works, on the uses of illness as a metaphor in the arts. Dark brown cloth covered boards with the title and author imprinted on the spine in gold. Former owner's name ink stamped on the first flyleaf at the upper right corner, about 2" long by 1/4" tall. No further writing on the text pages besides that though. No edge wear to the boards, the corners are not bumped or creased. Jacket has been protected with a clear, removable cover. No marks or tears to the jacket, just has a very light crease mark on the lower portion of the back panel, not very noticeable and it does not mar the cover illustration. Sewn binding is tight and square. Not a library copy, not a remainder. Attached photo is of the copy we have in our inventory, not a stock photo.
