Description: Beautiful condition first edition of Ann Petry's The Narrows. Petry also wrote The Street & Country Palace and is a Houghton Literary Fellowship winner. Besides the great condition, what sets aside this copy is the ORIGINAL REVIEW INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE PUBLISHER. The original, typewritten paper was included with this free copy, asking for the recipient's review. Paperwork shows a publish date of August 17, 1953. This paperwork has been in this book for 70+ years! Please note that there is nothing about the book itself that designates it as a review copy - this was prior to special ARC/Proof markings on books. Book and review paper have pencil markings. Book itself is quite firm - dust jacket has expected wear, mostly on edges/corners. No major flaws. Some minor yellowing/foxing but less than you'd typically see in a book this old. Please see all pics for full condition.
