Description
This is an auction for THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY by Robert James Waller.
From Wikipedia:

The novel is presented as a novelization of a true story, but it is in fact entirely fictional. However, the author has stated in an interview that there are strong similarities between the main character and himself. The novel is one of the bestselling books of the 20th century, with 50 million copies sold worldwide... The San Francisco Chronicle praised the novel as "lyrical..sensuous and sensitive..a tale of lasting love", while Entertainment Weekly called it "a short, poignant story, moving precisely because it has the ragged edges of reality"... The book debuted on the New York Times bestseller list in August 1992, and slowly climbed to number 1 and remained on the list for over three years (164 consecutive weeks)... The Bridges of Madison County was made into a 1995 film of the same name, directed by Clint Eastwood. It stars Eastwood and Meryl Streep..."
