About This Item
Eating People is Wrong by Malcolm Bradbury, 1st/1st, 1959
London: Secker & Warburg, (1959). First edition, first printing. This is a near fine copy. The dust wrapper, designed by Donald Green, is markedly bright and clean for this title, with light surface marking and spotting present. It has not been price clipped, showing the original 18s net price. The corners and spine tips and worn with mild shelf wear. The text blocks are moderately foxed, as are the preliminaries. The publisher's buckram is without notable chips and marks. This copy is free from inscriptions and is in near fine condition.
A slightly risqué campus novel.
