Betrayed by Rita Hayworth by Manuel Puig 

U.S. FIRST EDITION / SECOND PRINTING [1971] E.P. DUTTON & CO

Hardcover with dust jacket in Excellent condition.  Book itself looks & read Like New.  Dust Jacket has some very mild shelf wear.


Manuel Puig's celebrated first novel is a startling anatomy of a small town in thrall to its own petty lusts, betrayals, scandals, thefts, and gossip—but most of all, to the movies. Centering around a boy named Toto, privy to the town's secrets and always eager to fill in the ugly or upsetting moments of his childhood with Hollywood—inspired fantasy, Betrayed by Rita Hayworth is a symphony of disappointed, comic, bitter, and bawdy voices, all hemmed in by life's refusal to behave like the silver screen, and is perhaps the funniest and most honest coming-of-age story of its time.
