Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Near Fine jacket. Photoplay edition. Translated by Basil Creighton. Small gift inscription on front fly else near fine in slightly spine-faded, near fine dustwrapper. Jacket has photos of Joan Crawford, John Barrymore, Greta Garbo, Lionel Barrymore, and Wallace Beery from the great MGM film on the jacket, but no internal photos in the text. A handsome copy.
One cannot say that very often, admittedly. The film is magical, no other word applies. The hotel itself becomes a character in the film, but doesn't come alive in the book. Film's ability to intercut from one plot to another is a further advantage. I recommend the book because it is the original source.
