Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Good jacket. Later printing. Tan pictorial cloth. A bit of light offsetting onto the cloth from the damp, still bright and near fine in a worn and lightly spine-sunned, good only dust jacket with several small chips, tears (one at the crown) and small cover abrasions, and a dampstain at the top of the rear flap fold. Lockridge's only book, an excellent novel set during one day in the life of an Indiana school principal, and which manages to convey a sense of a specific time and place that has rarely been matched in American literature. Transformed into a troubled film with Montgomery Clift and Elizabeth Taylor.
