(price-clipped) [modest bumping to several corners, otherwise a good sound copy; the jacket is bright and attractive, lightly edgeworn, internally tape-reinforced at the spine ends, with one tiny chip at the top edge of the front panel and a little scuffing to the spine]. Novel about the "daughter of a short-lived, tempestuous marriage between Michael, American officer of the first World War, and Frederike, lovely but erratic German girl." The daughter, Laurie Bailey, "grows up during the restless years bridging two wars," dealing with the tension between "her gauche adolescence and her mother's volatile, firelight beauty." The author's first novel; she was 22 years old at the time, and ultimately wrote just two more published novels, "Dull the Sharp Edge" (1947) and "Unarmed in Paradise" (1959).
