Sobre este item
Published by Sarratt Village Books, Herts; 1999. 8vo. 64pp. First edition, first impression. Condition: Fine/Fine
Bound in original blue cloth boards with title in silver to the spine. The binding is square and tight and in very smart condition, with no marks or damage to speak of, save a touch of bumping to the spine ends. Inside, the pages are clean and bright and in beautiful condition, appearing barely read and practically as new.
The book is housed in its original first issue, pictorial dust jacket, with Sarratt Church by Moonlight to the front cover. It is in equally smart condition, vibrant and bright, with no signs of marking and with just a little wear to the corners.
In all, this is a very collectible and unusual item by le Carre a must-have for any collector of his work. It was produced by Sarratt village in order to raise funds for two local charities. It includes illustrations by local artists and contributions from le Carre, Mikhail Lyubimov, William Petre, Kurt Willinger, and Alexander Norman. Readers of le Carre, and fans of Smiley, will also recall that Sarratt was the fictional location of the Circus's spy school.
