Clown Girl
by Monica Drake

Clown Girl, a critically acclaimed debut novel (that we love*) by author Monica Drake, was published as a trade paperback original in 2007. It has never been published in hardcover. Until now.

Powell's, in partnership with publisher Hawthorne Books, has commissioned a limited print run of 750 custom-designed, hardcover copies, available only to Indiespensable subscribers.
