Signed Every Night, Josephine, "Elizabeth Taylor in Fur"
[Signed Presentation] Susann, Jacqueline. Every Night, Josephine. Fifth Printing. 1963. Book and dust jacket are both in very good minus condition—endpapers show discoloration; jacket shows minor fraying, small edge tears and mildly faded spine. Book is warmly and amusingly inscribed, “To Lynn & Hy, Even if you don’t like ‘dogs’—Josephine is not really a dog. She’s Elizabeth Taylor in fur.”
Written several years before Valley of the Dolls made Jacqueline Susann a household name, this charming memoir centers on Josephine, the poodle who shared her life and often stole the spotlight. Set amid the cocktail parties, celebrity encounters, and fashionable apartments of mid-century Manhattan, it reveals the warmth, humor, and keen powers of observation that would soon bring Susann worldwide fame.
"Even if you don’t like ‘dogs’—Josephine is not really a dog. She’s Elizabeth Taylor in fur.”
