Hardcover. First Ed UK, so stated. First Ed UK, so stated. Near Fine in Near Fine DJ: Book shows glue stain along front inner gutter; pages have tanned somewhat, due to aging.

NOT an Ex-Library copy. 8vo. 304pp. (published in 1991 by Chatto and Windus). Hardback with DJ. Mary Gaitskill's Two Girls, Fat and Thin is a brilliantly satiric but nonetheless disturbingly realistic story of how cults appeal to the alienated and confused precisely by providing them with a sense of belonging and simple answers to complex questions.
