About This Item
This is a first edition (1966) of The Birds Fall Down, by the English writer Rebecca West (Dame Cicily Fairfield 1892-1983). It was published that year by Viking; this copy was issued by the Book of the Month club the same year.
It is a political thriller, historical novel and family saga. A psychological mystery about Russian revolutionaries preparing to overthrow the Tsarist regime.
435 pages.
As you can see, the dust jacket is not in good shape. There was a splash to the spine. That carried through to the spine of the book, which is not stained but is a little wrinkled.
The covers are unmarked, with no damage of any kind.
Inside, the book is in perfect condition.
