NY, Knopf, 1981. His third novel, a finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Award and winner of the L.A. Times Award for best novel of the year. A dark tale of a small Central American country in upheaval, and the lives of a group of Americans whose different backgrounds and connections to the action intersect alarmingly and tragically. Signed by the author. A bit of foxing to spine cloth; very near fine in a near fine, price-clipped dust jacket with a corner crease to the front flap. [#028551] $20
