About this Item

A smart first edition of this book about the end of childhood, from American author Peter S. Prescott. Signed and inscribed by the author. First edition. Signed to the front endpaper with the inscription: "For Kit, who knows how this stuff is written, even if she doesn't write it - affectionately, Peter." Drawn directly from the diary of the author kept while he was a bright but insecure freshman at Harvard in the 1950s. This work explores the raw, half-understood experiences of late adolescence and the end of childhood. Written by Peter Sherwin Prescott, an American author and book critic. In the original black cloth binding. Externally, excellent. Original unclipped dust wrapper is very smart with light wear and sunning to the extremities. Light loss to the head of the spine and the odd small mark to the panels. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright with the odd small spot or handling mark. Near Fine.
