New York: Random House, 1976. Near fine in near fine dust jacket.. First edition of the follow-up to CORREGIDORA, also edited by Toni Morrison, about a Black woman who has been jailed for murder. After Jones's critcally-acclaimed first novel CORREGIDORA, EVA'S MAN explores a visceral story of trauma and sexual violence, delving at times into the surreal and gothic. Her versatile, evocative storytelling has placed her on the shortlists for both the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize. 8.25'' x 5.5''. Original brown cloth-backed boards. Original unclipped ($6.95) color pictorial dust jacket, designed by Wendell Minor. 178 pages. Jacket with mild toning to edges. Faint foxing to textblock edges. Tight.
