First American edition hardcover with dust jacket, published by Simon & Schuster, 1986. Three novellas from the author of 'Mrs. Caliban'. As an American author who spent the majority of her adult life in England, the true first editions are the UK editions. UK editions are usually in somewhat different format, with different titles and stories. This one was first published as 'Three of a Kind' by Faber & Faber. 141 page, includes; 'I See A Long Journey', 'On Ice', and 'Blessed Art Thou'. Gray-green colored boards over wheat colored cloth covered boards with the author and title imprinted on the spine in the same gray-green as the cover boards. Boards are flat, and the corners are not bumped or creased. Cover photo by Matt Mahurin. No former ownership marks, no writing on the text pages. Sewn binding is tight and square. Edges of the text block are clean. Jacket is intact and is not price clipped, it has been protected with a clear, removable cover. Not a library discard, not a remainder copy. Attached photo is of the copy we have in our inventory, not a stock photo.
