A propos de cet article

A first edition thus, with an exclusive introduction by Marilyn French. Square and tight, this is in a remarkable condition for a paperback of this age. It has a discrete blind stamp of a former owner, but no written in name. This looks like an unread high quality paperback from the early period in Virago's editions. Clean and tight.

"I don't s'pose there's any kind of a show for me, is there?" he asked, pointing with his free hand-the stained seamed hand of the mechanic-to the inert bundle on the quilt. IIct only immediate answer was to wipe the dampness from his forehead; then she said: "We'll talk about tliat to-morrow." "Why not now?" "Because Dr. Disbrow can't tell till the inflammation goes down." "Will it go down by to-morrow?" "It will begin to, if you don't excite yourself and keep up the fever." I 3]
