NY, Harcourt Brace, (1967). The uncorrected proof copy of Speicher's first novel, with a 75-word blurb by Thomas Pynchon on the front cover and a Joseph Heller blurb on the rear cover. Spine-faded; near fine in wrappers. Pynchon blurbs are decidedly uncommon, and this is one from fairly early in his career: Pynchon's second novel, The Crying of Lot 49, was published later in the same month that Speicher's book came out, April 1967.
