Choke

No Doubleday book-club issue of Choke is documented in the sources consulted, and no club tells specific to this title could be confirmed. The reliable reprint tells are the loss of the "FIRST EDITION" statement and an advanced printline lacking the 1; the common later trade appearance is the Anchor paperback (2002). A jacket with no price at the flap should be treated with caution as a possible club or export issue rather than assumed to be a clipped trade jacket.
