New York: Octagon Books, 1976. Hardcover. Fine. Second edition. Octavo. 312pp. Small burn(?) hole on rear fly, else fine without dust jacket, possibly as issued. This is McCarthy's husband's copy with his ownership signature on the rear pastedown: "James West Paris 1977." McCarthy was an American novelist, critic, and political activist. She left the Catholic Church at a young age, and spent time in different Communist circles, settling into the anti-Stalinist Left. In the 1960's she traveled to Vietnam, acting as an anti-war reporter. A very uncommon edition.
