NY, Viking, (1983). The reissue of Farina's first and only novel, originally published in 1966. With a new introduction by Pynchon which details his and Farina's relationship at Cornell and afterward. Issued simultaneously in paperback and hardcover, this is a hardcover copy and has the bookplate of Pynchon's editor, Ray Roberts, on the front pastedown. This edition was printed on cheap paper which is darkening with age; otherwise this is a fine copy in a near fine dust jacket with a couple small spots of rubbing and a closed tear to the rear flap fold.
