Item description
This is a softcover book, The Gravedigger's Daughter by Joyce Carol Oates. It is a First Harper Perennial Edition (trade paperback) published in 2008. The novel was based on the life of Oates's grandmother, whose father, a gravedigger settled in rural America, injured his wife, threatened his daughter, and then committed suicide. Here's a synopsis from the publisher:
"Fleeing Nazi Germany in 1936, the Schwarts immigrate to a small town in upstate New York. Here the father - a former high school teacher - is demeaned by the only job he can get: gravedigger and cemetery caretaker. When local prejudice and the family's own emotional frailty give rise to an unthinkable tragedy, the gravedigger's daughter, Rebecca heads out into America. Embarking upon an extraordinary odyssey of erotic risk and ingenious self-invention, she seeks renewal, redemption, and peace - on the road to a bittersweet and distinctly 'American' triumph."
Book has been read once and is in excellent used condition. It shows some very mild wear to the cover but no other issues to mention. All pages are clean and intact and there's no writing in it. Asking $4.00 obo. Everything I have listed for sale is "or best offer", so feel free to make an offer.
