EMMA BLUE, Beverly Lowry, hardcover with unclipped dust jacket, stated first edition, inscribed to Liz Carpenter [Lady Bird Johnson?s press secretary, 1963-1969] and signed by the author in 1978. BOOK CONDITION: very good. The text block is in fine condition, with no tears, dogears, or marks. Minor foxing along top edge.

The tan and green boards are in near fine condition (lightly bumped spine). Dust jacket is in fair condition (crinkling along top edge, age-toned inside). 8 ½ x 5 ½, 231 pages, 12 ounces XX [From the dust jacket flaps] "Everything everywhere ran over and out of whatever boundaries she imposed on herself. Blouses came untucked, belts folded over, shoes got rundown. She could no more contain her body than she could the behavior some people said was so rowdy and improper. And she had had to fight for every inch of her own from the day she had been abandoned by her mother, left to grow up with her grandmother and great-grandmother in a trailer camp in the South. Determined to emerge as her own person, Emma must now face the shadows of the past. Illegitimacy. Small-town judgments. Secret disappointments quietly nursed over the years. Most of all she must confront the memory of her mother, once the town's baton-twirling golden girl, now a legend who sends cards with no return address. But this stark world, which forces a young girl to grow up quickly, is also one of richness ? of verdant seasons, of past mysteries showing through the veneer of changing times, of deep attractions ? enhanced by Emma's keen eye and ebullient curiosity. A beautifully written account of a coming of age ? of a young girl, of a region, of a time. XX Beverly Lowry was born in Memphis, Tennessee, and raised in Greenville, Mississippi. Of Come Back, Lolly Ray, her first novel, the critics have said: What Lowry [shares] with that great Southern tradition of fiction is an aptitude for the dramatic, a gift for metaphor and elaboration, a vision of the past abiding in and sometimes overwhelming the present (Joe David Bellamy, The New York Times Book Review), A book of varied and multiple pleasures (Susan Horowitz, Saturday Review), Beverly Lowry has an incredible keyhole eye, catching men and women at the moment of their most vulnerable needs (Elizabeth Ashton, The Houston Chronicle).
