About This Item
Peter Owen Publishers, 1985 This is possibly the ONLY signed first edition of the UK hardback first. SIGNED on the title page. The issue had its price changed on publication and so this has the customary clipped price on the front end flap, with the revised price sticker, PUBLISHER'S PRICE: £10.95. Crisp and clean binding, this book looks to be UNREAD. Did I mention this is a SUPERB novel? Well, it is. George Steiner wrote, 'Purdy is a writer of fantastic talent.'. Signed by Author. 1st Edition.. Hardcover. Fine/Fine.
