(NY), Delta/(Dell), (1961). The third printing of the wrappered reissue of the author's first book, a highly praised collection of stories that later came to be one of the key works in the renaissance of women's writing that accompanied the feminist movement in the late 1960's and 1970's. Warmly inscribed by the author to Annie Dillard in 1974: "In kinship -- and in love for/ your work." With Olsen's signature and address label, and Dillard's ownership signature, beneath which she has added "please return." A rubbed, read, very good copy with a small chip at the lower spine. A wonderful literary association. [#017239] SOLD
