Description: COMING THROUGH SLAUGHTER written by MICHAEL ONDAATJE SIGNED BY ONDAATJE ON TITLE PAGE: "To Joan / MIchael Ondaatje" Ondaatje signed this to me when I worked at the Booksmith here in San Francisco. He came to the store several times. I have seen many authors and illustrators sign books, but he was amazing to watch - he signs his name very fast and very fluidly - a lovely swooping motion! A novel set in New Orleans in the first flush of the jazz era. This book was bought new and is in very good condition. I take very good care of my books in my smoke-free environment. But the paper has not aged as well as I might hope. Notes on condition: binding: glued paperback binding - all pages secure paperback cover: glossy stiff paper cover very clean and crisp - no marks or rips interior pages: crisp and clean, no marks or tears; however there is some age discoloration around the edges of some pages Please see photos to get a sense of the great condition and distinctive signature.

Books can easily be combined and pack well together. Media mail is a very affordable rate offered by the USPS. Cost is based solely on weight and does not vary with distance. If buying multiple books, please put them in your cart and then "request total from seller". I will then send you an invoice with an adjusted shipping cost. However, I have been told that if you are ordering from a phone, it may not be possible to request such a total. If that is your situation, please go ahead and pay the shipping as billed. Then, when I process your order, I will calculate the difference between shipping paid versus actual cost, and refund you any difference. Thanks for looking!
