About This Item
Published by Viking, London; 2019. 8vo. First edition, first impression. 281pp. Condition: Fine/Fine
Bound in original black cloth boards with title to the spine. The binding is square and tight and in excellent condition, with no damage or marks to speak of. Inside, the pages are clean and bright and free from blemishes or wear. The book is tightly bound and appears unread.
This lovely book is housed in its original dust jacket, which is in equally smart condition, with no signs of damage or marking.
In all, this is a beautiful example of this modern first edition by one of the most prolific authors of the twentieth century. Agent Running in the Field is a chilling portrait of our time, now heart-breaking, now darkly humorous, told to us with unflagging tension by the greatest chronicler of our age.
