LE GUIN, Ursula K.

NY: Harper & Row, 1985. First edition box set, wrappered issue. 523pp; b&w illus. Pictorial wraps. In matching card slipcase, with "Music & Poetry of the Kesh" cassette tape. Some adhesive staining at spine ends, presumably incurred during production. Else near fine in a lightly rubbed and worn box. Signed, inscribed, and dated in year publication by Le Guin at title page. Nice copy of one of Le Guin's most ambitious works, an anthropology of far future inhabitants of Northern California. Illustrated by Margaret Chodos, with cassette tape of original music composed by Todd Barton. Le Guin's inscription here is to American photographer Miriam Berkley, noted for her work as an author photographer (and who photographed Le Guin on numerous occasions).
