Description
You are bidding on this hard cover first edition signed copy of Losing Mr. North, by Elaine Kagan. It is a first edition but I am unsure if it is a first printing. It is a hard cover book, with dust jacket. It has a copyright date of 2002, and was published by William Morrow. It is in very good to like new condition, with only some very light wear at the corners and edges. The spine and binding are good, and all 362 pages are intact and in good condition. The paper dust jacket is also in very good condition, but does have some scuffs and light stains on it, as well as some yellowing from age, and some small tears along the edges. This is a very nice signed first edition novel…
Married for 31 years, Jack and Linda North live on a spread of land seven hours north of Los Angeles. But once a month this retired police detective and grandfather of four makes the drive to L. A. and another woman – Rachel, his mistress of six years. For a week, Jack tidies a different lawn, fixes the broken cogs in a different wheel, and makes love to a different woman with a different set of charms. There are no secrets in this triangle – each knows the names and the players and the rules – and despite the nagging disapproval of others the triangle remains stable by the tacit consent of all three. Until one hot, dry Monday when jack leaves to make the monthly drive – and never shows up. Now, two women who have held tight to their resentment of each other must come together to find the man they love…
