Sobre este item
Cambridge, MA: Zoland Books, 1997. First Edition, First Printing. . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Alcorn's third novel is more than another murder-in-academia mystery. After all, when Dean Cranston Fessing of Wainscot University, dispatched to investigate the finances of the neighboring Museum of Man, is dispatched himself, his grisly remains bear evidence of cannibalism. And that's not all. Reluctant investigator Norman de Ratour also discovers creative writing in the primate pavilion and Neitzchean ambitions in the genetics lab in this satirical romp through academia. Previous owner's signature written neatly on half title page o/w text and boards are clean, tight, with a slight spine lean; dustjacket shows only minor surface and edgewear.
Sinopse
