HIGHSMITH, Patricia
HIGHSMITH, Patricia
NY: Harper & Brothers, 1958. First edition. 269pp. Brown paper over boards, backed with black cloth; gilt spine titles and front board publisher's stamp; dust jacket. Light shelfwear; dulling and a few small spots of soiling to textblock edges; former owner's name neatly penned to ffep. Unclipped jacket slightly misfolded, with sunned spine, several small chips and closed tears, and diagonal crease to rear flap. Very good.
First American edition of this early novel—her sixth, including the pseudonymous Price of Salt—by American writer Patricia Highsmith (1921-1995). Her only novel set in Mexico, about a Mexican furniture repairman and a German expatriate whose friendship unravels over the murder of a woman they had both loved.
