Jonah's Gourd Vine

Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott Company, 1934.

First edition, first printing. Bound in publisher's pale green cloth stamped in black, lacking the dust jacket. Very Good. Light lean to spine. Cloth faded, lightly marked. Previous owner details and news-clippings tipped in on front and rear endsheets. Several small stains to text block edge; pages toned, with sporadic staining. A nice copy of Hurston's scarce first novel, a semi-autobiographical story detailing the migration of characters similar to Hurston's parents from Alabama to her home of Eatonville, Florida.
