About This Item
First UK Edition/First Printing; A Very Good book in a Very Good dust jacket. SIGNED by the author to the title page. A handsome copy of this collection of poems, the author's 4th collection; this is the only hardcover edition as the US was only issued in softcover. This copy is in very good condition showing some moderate rubbing and chipping to the board edges and some light off-setting to the front free paper, else near fine or better; housed in a bright very good or better dust jacket that shows only some light soiling and age-toning to the spine and back panel. Not remaindered, not price clipped, not ex-library; in a fresh Mylar sleeve and will ship carefully wrapped in a sturdy box.
