First Edition/First Printing--Advanced Review Copy with paperwork laid in from the Publisher. Signed by the author on the title page. Fine in a very good dustjacket that has just the hint of rubbing from shelfwear --protected by a BrodArt jacket cover. A very unusual dustjacket cover with the first paragraph from the first chapter transmitted to the front cover of the D/J. Coover writes about one small town on the prarie and the woman who casts her spell on all who live there. A very collectable signed copy. Coover is the winner of the Faulkner award for best first novel for "The Origins of the Brunists".
