Description
For sale: a Rare first hardcover edition, first printing of Bastard out of Carolina by Dorothy Allison with stains.
The book is in Very Good condition with lightly faded boards with stains on the rear edges, strong title ink on a straight spine, light stains on page blocks, tight binding, mild spine tilt, rolled spine ends, heavy edge wear, and bumped corners. The interior of the book is in Very Good condition with an erased price on the half title page. No other marks, inscriptions, or other signs of ownership inside.

Tired of being labeled white trash, Ruth Anne Boatwright–a South Carolina bastard who is attached to the indomitable women in her mother’s family–longs to escape from her hometown, and especially from Daddy Glen and his mean-spirited jealousy.
Ships promptly in a secure mailer with book wrapped in both craft paper and bubble wrap.
