Additional Information
"Here is a thoroughly delightful, completely comic and utterly frivolous novel which might also be called 'The Body In The Well,' except that would sound like a murder story which it is not. 'Dove Cottage' was written especially for anyone who dreams of inheriting a fortune, for anyone who dreams of inheriting a fortune which will enable him to throw up his job, for anyone who dreams of inheriting a fortune which will enable him to throw up his job and retire to the country, there to spend his days writing mystery novels and pruning roses! It was also written for anyone who HAS a mother-in-law; anyone who IS a mother-in-law; anyone who has a skeleton in the family closet; anyone whose relatives come to visit and won't go home. It is also written for all amateur artists. It was not written for anyone who is perfectly satisfied with what he has accomplished in life and what he is. Nor is it recommended for anyone who regards falling in love as a prerogative of the young."; top and bottom of spine plus corners of covers are rubbed and bumped; edge wear to dj, plus small chips to top of dj spine; dj is NOT price clipped
