Lebowitz, Fran. Fawcett Crest, 1978. Softbound. Author photo by John Bean. Another incredible cover design by Neil Stuart, this one cheekily embracing deco excess that would go on to gain an iconic status equal to that of the book's author. 'To a base of Huck Finn,' blurbs John Leonard of the eternally acerbic Lebowitz, 'add some Lenny Bruce and Oscar Wilde, a dash of cab driver, an assortment of puns, minced jargon, and top it off with smarty pants. Serve without whine.'
Tight, square spine has some sunning and cosmetic creasing. Clean, unmarked interior. The two front fore-edge corners are subtly chipped and there are a few small areas of gentle edge-wear and light creasing to the covers. 222 pp. Featured Rare & Collectible.
