About This Item
Published by Bloomsbury Publishing, London; 1990. Fine/FIne. *Signed by author*.
This modern first edition is in Fine condition. It is tightly bound in the original publisher's navy boards with gold gilt detailing to front and title to the spine. Inside, the pages are clean and bright and the book appears practically unread and in excellent condition. The book is signed by the author on the title page.
The book is housed in a Fine dust jacket, which other than some slight bumping to the edges and a hint of rubbing in places, is in excellent clean smart condition.
This novel finds the crisis point for an ordinary man and takes a happy occasion, turning it on it's head and leaving the moral questions of right and wrong to be addressed. 'The skeins of plot are tightened to a pitch of suspense that leaves the reader breathless…it is, all to crucially, a book for our times.'
