Sobre este item
London: John Murray, 1953. First edition. Cloth. Near Fine/Very Good. 9" by 5.5". Not Stated. A first edition of Leigh Fermor's only novel. 'It is the story of a world that has vanished in more senses than one. The remote island of Saint-Jaques in the Caribbean archipelago is the home of an antiquated French aristocracy... the events of the book take place in 1902, a period little exploited by novelists and the flamboyant scene is the background for a strange and moving drama'. In a green cloth binding with unclipped dustwrapper. Externally smart, with just some minor shelfwear. Dustwrapper is quite smart also, though with some edgewear and slight loss to the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright and clean. Near Fine
