Sex and Rage: Advice to Young Ladies Eager for a Good Time
"Along with the opium, champagne, brandy, and cocaine, Jacaranda and Etienne would clash by night, sometimes till dawn, when they'd walk along the dewy lawns...toward the view and watch L.A. turn bluish pink, then yellow, then smog."

Sex and Rage: Advice to Young Ladies Eager for a Good Time

New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1979. First Edition. Hardcover. Octavo. [vi], 227 pages.

A vibrant exploration of Los Angeles and New York through the eyes of Jacaranda Leven, a surfer-turned-writer navigating love, creativity, and self-destruction. Babitz captures the allure and chaos of the 1970s, influencing modern narratives about women, art, and identity.

Slight fading toward board extremities, with a bit of shallow bumping to spine ends. Some slight browning but no significant wear to dust jacket, whose original price remains intact. Overall about fine in a fine dust jacket.
