NY, Norton, (1989). Inscribed by Sarton to Doris Grumbach in the year of publication: "For Doris/ with love always/ from M." Below this, Sarton has signed her name in full. Grumbach is not specifically named, but the book comes from a collection where similarly inscribed books confirmed the attribution. A wonderful association: in addition to their being friends; both authors explored lesbian themes in their novels before such a thing was fashionable, then ordinary, then cause for rage and banning. Slight lean (as though from gentle reading), else fine in a fine dust jacket. [#036481] $250
