Description:
London: Faber and Faber,1998 0571195466. First edition. First Printing. Complete numberline. Near Fine/Near Fine. DW is not price clipped and has a cover image by the artist Damien Hirst who was a friend of the late author. No inscriptions or annotations. "Grotesque but brilliant study of Fred West and his even more repulsive wife. Between them they raped, tortured and murdered a still unknown number of people. It cannot avoid being a dreadful tale because of its subject, but it is also this very fine writer's best book." Interest in the book has been newly awakened by the powerful dramatisation on television, 'Appropriate Adult', with Dominic West and Emily Watson both of whom received BAFTA awards for their performances. "Burn gained unprecedented access to case files and West family histories to weave the back stories of the murderers, the murdered and the survivors into a flawlessly crafted and non-judgmental book that once read is never forgotten." .

It cannot avoid being a dreadful tale because of its subject, but it is also this very fine writer's best book. This copy has been read, and the pages are tanning because the publisher used poor quality paper, but this copy also has the supreme distinction of being signed on the title page. The stunning wraparound jacket, famously created by Damien Hirst, is protected. 'To Steve, with all best wishes, Gordon Burn' it says, and that makes this a RARE copy of a great book. With great interest newly awakened by the tremendous dramatisation on television, 'Appropriate Adult', with Dominic West and Emily Watson, this signed copy is now much sought after.
