ERDRICH, Louise
The Beet Queen
NY, Henry Holt, (1986). The advance reading copy of her second novel, and the second in the sequence of novels that began with Love Medicine. Because of the success of her first novel, this title was aggressively promoted, and an advance reading copy was rushed to press as a promotional giveaway for the American Booksellers Association's annual convention. The author was still in the process of making the last revisions to the novel, so the text of this advance copy varies from that of the final published book. Signed by both Erdrich and Michael Dorris, her husband: both writers credited the other with virtually co-writing their novels. Slight spine fading, else fine in wrappers.
