Chocolates for Breakfast
New York: Rinehart and Company, (1956).
Sold
Hardcover. First edition. Pages with the inevitable browning, a small bookstore stamp and foxing to the front fly, else a very good plus copy in an about very good dustwrapper with a couple of splash marks and small tears at the spine. At the time scandalous bestselling novel by an 18-year old actress about the daughter of a fading Hollywood star who sinks into depravity and eventually commits suicide, something the author herself reportedly emulated (but which we have not been able to confirm). Something of a cult classic and very hard to find in the first edition.
