Surfacing
Surfacing by Margaret Atwood, published in Toronto by McClelland and Stewart Limited in 1972. This hardcover copy is from the first Canadian edition and is explicitly identified on the copyright page as the second printing, also issued in 1972. ISBN 0-7710-0822-8.
Atwood’s second novel follows an unnamed artist who returns with three companions to the remote northern Quebec landscape of her childhood in search of her missing father. The journey becomes both a mystery and an intense psychological exploration of memory, identity, relationships, alienation, and the transforming force of the wilderness.
Very Good overall, with a small chipped area at the upper-left front of the dust jacket near the spine head, plus some wear and small losses around the jacket spine ends. The dust jacket is now protected with clear removable plastic.
Please review all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description and show the edition statement, publisher information, jacket design, and condition details.
