New York: Viking Press, 1977. Octavo, cloth & boards. Small tape scars on pastedowns from where jacket flaps were taped down, else fine. Price-clipped jacket has light sunning to inner margin of rear panel, tan background of spine sunned to white (spine is usually faded), causing the white book title to disappear (the author's name in black in unaffected), nice otherwise. This fermale Native American author's first novel. In the first issue jacket with "Some Comments on Leslie Silko" at the top of the rear flap. Tiny pencil ownership initials on front free endpaper of a noted Canadian Indian novelist. Distingushed American dealer Ken Lopez has said that when he first read this book he thought it a great book and it is what caused him to become a noted specialist in native American literature.
