NY, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, (1976). The uncorrected proof copy of her second novel, about a young black woman coming of age during the Civil Rights movement, as Walker herself did. In this version, the final three sections follow a different order from the published version. Proof sheets bound in cardstock covers with a black tape spine. It is likely that very few copies were prepared thus. Mild edge sunning, two stray pen marks; else fine. Scarce.   [#020061] $750

All books are first printings of first editions or first American editions unless otherwise noted.
