Find a Way

2015réf. 2111New York: Alfred A. Knopf 2015. First edition. Hardcover. Fair/fair. Nicely signed roughly treated. Signed boldly by Nyad on the first blank in black sharpie no inscription. Blue hardcover in dustjacket stated first edition no number-line. A fair copy of both book and dustjacket. Notably edgeworn with bumping and discoloration along the bottom edge and spine ends impacted. Binding is cocked forward and although all pages are still bound in there is a feeling of looseness. Joints and hinges are solid. All pages are clean and unmarked other than the author's signature. The dustjacket is shiny and bright not clipped but suffers from a series of small toothmarks at the top of the front and rear panels spineward - otherwise this would be a very nice jacket. 308 pp. color photo inserts corresponding to the areas of looseness in the binding. Alfred A. Knopf hardcover
