Sobre este item
Hamish Hamilton, 1946. 1st UK Edition . Hardcover. Good/Good. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. 86pp. Blue cloth boards (sharp, bright, a little rounded at spine tips). Lending sheet on front free endpaper, no other library markings. Occasional foxing, dusty text block edge. In its original worn and edge-rubbed dust jacket (faded, visible shelf wear on verso). Dust jacket now in archival-quality mylar wrapper to protect & prolong the life of the jacket. It is not adhered to the book or to the dust jacket. A pleasing and in many ways perfect little novel that has recently undergone a revival, and which has been hard to find despite a 1960s reprint.
