Unexpected Child
Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Fate really has it in for Meg Krantz. A single 37-year-old lesbian, she relishes her independent life in New York City, and motherhood is the last thing on her mind. But when as a volunteer for an AIDS service provider she meets the soon-to-be-orphaned 4 1/2-year-old Kimble Toffler, her growing attachment to the child seems to be leading her in an unexpected direction.
"A novel about being delivered-freed-from our expectations. In prose that is confident and spare, often wry, and never sentimental, Patricia Grossman shows us how one woman comes to terms with her impulse to protect those she loves."-Michael Downing, author of Breakfast with Scot
Patricia Grossman is the author of Inventions in a Grieving House and Four Figures in Time and the award-winning children's books, The Night Ones and Saturday Market. She makes her home in Brooklyn.
