About This Item
London: Longmans, 1960. A first edition, first printing, published by Longmans in 1960. A very good book without inscriptions, with some pushing to the foot of the spine and corner of the front board, the text block with a trace of spotting, some light spotting to the front pastedown and front free end. In a very good unclipped wrapper, with minor wear and browning to the top edge. Author's second book. Flight into Camden is a poignant novel delving into the complexities of human relationships and identity. Set in post-World War II England, it follows the journey of George, a former RAF pilot haunted by his past. Returning to his hometown of Camden, he confronts memories of love, loss and the passage of time. Storey masterfully explores themes of memory, nostalgia, and the struggle for meaning in a changing world, creating a profound and introspective narrative.
