Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. No Jacket. Special Edition. Advance Reader's Edition of Uncorrected Proof in paperback. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition. "A rich, wonderfully alive novel from one of our most admired and best-loved writers, her first in nine years. Set in the 1950s in wartime Korea and West Virginia, it is the story of a sister and brother--Lark, on the verge of adulthood; Termite, a boy unable to walk or talk, but full of radiance--in a gripping drama full of secrets, ghosts, and the echoes of history. Phillips invites us into the hearts and thoughts of the children's mother, Lola; their aunt Nonie, who raises them; Termite's father, Corporal Robert Leavitt, who finds himself caught up in the chaotic early months of the Korean War; even into Termite's intricate, shuttered consciousness. LARK & TERMITE is a powerful novel about the strength of love and loss, the searing ramifications of war, and the mysterious, almost magical bonds that unite and sustain us." [publisher copy] "A tour-de force of history, imagination and invention. It is resonant and profound, a masterpiece worth waiting for."--Elissa Schappell. "Mysterious, affecting . . . reveals [a family's] tangled secrets in such a profound and intimate way that these ordinary, wounded people become both tragic and magnificent."--Ron Charles, Washington Post Book World. "Jayne Anne Phillips's intricate, deeply felt new novel reverberates with echoes of Faulkner, Woolf, Kerouac, McCullers, and Michael Herr's war reporting, and yet it fuses all these wildly disparate influences into something incandescent and utterly original. [Her characters] are so indelible, so intimately drawn, that they threaten to move in and take up permanent residence in the reader's mind."--Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times. Pristine paperback ARC w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued.…
