Half-Leather. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. FIRST PRINTING. Critically acclaimed, Pulitzer Prize-winning author's fourth book. "It is the spring of 1975. David Fleming, an Army Intelligence captain is about to be court-martialed for having kidnapped and set free a Viet Cong officer. As the trial forces David to consider his own baffling concern for the prisoner (since he cannot explain it to himself, how can he ever hope to satisfy the judge?), it also prompts memories of a brief affair he had with an aristocratic Vietnamese woman named Suong, an affair that she abruptly and inexplicably broke off". With a wife and newborn son back home David begins to believe that Suong broke off the affair because she was pregnant and becomes obsessed to find the son he left behind! 245 pages. Yelllowing to top and bottom edges of DJ. Remainder marked. Sans rips/tears, stains and other prominent flaws. MANY OTHER BUTLER TITLES AVAILABLE (all first editions/first printings). LF.
