A novel in letters relating the trials of Sarah Worth, a "latter-day Hester Prynne" who becomes enamored by a Hindu religious leader and joins his commune in Arizona. Stated first edition. First printing. This is a beautiful copy that appears unread. Aside from a 1.5" embossed personal library seal on the front free endpaper, this is an exceptionally clean copy with no writing, marks, underlining, or bookplates. No remainder marks. Not an ex-library copy. Spine is tight and crisp. Corners are square and not bumped. Pink cloth boards are flat and true with virtually no edge wear and just a small (1/4") pencil mark on the front board. Dust jacket is not price-clipped ($17.95) and shows minimal shelf wear/scuffing, just some very minor edge wear and a 1/2" area of creasing at the upper spine. This collectible, near fine/near fine, first edition/first printing copy is protected with an archival mylar dust jacket cover. Satisfaction guaranteed!
