Book First Edition
Original Wraps. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No Jacket, as Issued. First UK Paperback Edition. First impression of the first UK edition with full number-string sequence including the no. "1": 1 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2. This paperback edition was published simultaneously with a scarcer hardback edition. Translated from the German by Michael Hulse. Illustrated with black and white photographs throughout the text. ***Very good in monochrome photo-illustrated card covers with integral French flaps, with silver titles to the spine and front cover. There are some light creases to the edges, but the covers are clean and unmarked. No major creases or tears, and no reading creases to the spine. Corners sharp. There is some light staining to the top of the fore-edge of the page block, but this doesn't really affect the interior pages. Internally also very good with no inscriptions, but please note that a previous owner has neatly clipped the top corner of the front free endpaper [probably removing an old ownership name]. Interior pages clean and bright. No creases. Spine tight. ***210 mm x150 mm. 263 pages. ***Contents: I. Beyle, or Love is a Madness Most Discreet, II. All'estero, III. Dr K. Takes the Waters at Riva, IV. Il ritorno in patria. ***'"Vertigo" is the book in which W. G. Sebald first employed the spell-binding blend of personal narrative, investigation, fiction, history and ravel writing that has since won him international acclaim for the Emigrants and The Rings of Saturn. ***In the first of four linked narratives following the young Stendhal (at that time still Marie Henri Beyle) as he revisits the battlefields of Napoleon's Italian Campaign, Sebald announces his theme: the vertiginous unreliability of memory. In the second and third narratives, the frescoes of Pisanello, the imprisonment of Casanova in Venice, the trials of Franz Kafka in Italy, and the narrator's own uneasy journeyings, develop the theme. In the final movement, motifs sketched in the earlier parts of the book are synthesised into one mesmerising autobiographical quest as Sebald returns to his childhood roots in southern Germany to discover the dizzying otherness of his own past. ***Line by line we are drawn into a symphonic labyrinth from which escape seems impossible, until Sebald introduces his final theme: the delight the creative process takes in blending, transforming and refashioning past experience into a new and consoling whole.' [Quote taken from the back cover] ***First impression of the first UK edition of W. G. Sebald's "Vertigo", published as a paperback original [simultaneously with a scarcer hardback edition]. A good reading copy of the original printing of this Sebald classic. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First UK Edition. First impression of the first UK edition with full number-string sequence including the no. "1": 1 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2. This hardcover edition was published simultaneously with a more commonly found paperback edition. The hardcover copies were aimed mainly at public lending libraries, and so are much harder to find now. Translated from the German by Michael Hulse. Illustrated with black and white photographs throughout the text. ***Very good in black cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. The gilt is still nice and bright, having been protected by the dustwrapper. Boards clean and unmarked. Head and tail of the spine slightly creased. There is also a small scuff to the bottom edge of the front board near the spine. Lower corners very slightly creased. Internally, the book is near fine - clean and unmarked. There is just some light creasing to the fore edge of the first few pages where the pages have been turned - otherwise the book feels largely unread. No tears. No foxing. Spine tight. ***In a near fine monochrome illustrated dustwrapper, that is not price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's price of £16.99 on the front flap. Just light wear and rubbing to the edges of the dustwrapper. No chips or tears. No significant creasing. ***217 mm x155 mm. 263 pages. ***Contents: I. Beyle, or Love is a Madness Most Discreet, II. All'estero, III. Dr K. Takes the Waters at Riva, IV. Il ritorno in patria. ***'"Vertigo" is the book in which W. G.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First UK Edition. Second impression of the scarce first UK hardback edition with the number-string sequence as follows: 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2. The hardback edition was published simultaneously with a paperback edition, but had a much smaller print-run, and only ran to three impressions. ***Please note that this is an ex-library copy, and the front free endpaper and half-title pages have been removed.*** Translated from the German by Michael Hulse. Illustrated with black and white photographs throughout. ***A good copy in brown cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. The boards are clean and unmarked. Head and tail of spine slightly creased. Corners of front board also creased. Page block edges clean. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. Internally, the book is also very good, with clean and unmarked pages except for the following library marks to the interior as follows: front free endpaper and half-title pages removed, and title page glued at the gutter, Suffolk County Libraries & Heritage withdrawn library stamp to the title page. Surprisingly, there are no other obvious library interventions, and very little creasing to the pages. ***In a very good original illustrated dustwrapper, with a front cover illustration from a painting by J. A. M. Whistler 'Harmony in Blue and Silver, Trouville'. The dustwrapper is complete, but the library has for some reason price-clipped the front flap. The dustwrapper remains clean, with just slight rubbing and creasing at the extremities. The spine of the dustwrapper is faded, also affecting the edges of the panels near the spine. The dustwrapper is however well preserved for an ex-library copy. ***216mm x155mm. 296 pages. ***'"The Rings of Saturn" records a journey on foot through coastal East Anglia, the author's home for more than twenty years; it is also an exploration of England's pastoral and imperial past. The narrator extends the horizons of Suffolk to embrace the exploitation in the Congo witnessed by Joseph Conrad and Roger Casement, the succession to the Dragon throne in Chinese history, the lives and writings of Thomas Browne, Jorge Luis Borges, Chateaubriand, silkworm cultivation, Ireland's troubles, and the "ethnic cleansing" carried out fifty years ago in Bosnia. ***"The Rings of Saturn" follows the trails of destruction human beings have wrought on themselves, and yet it is an unremittingly fascinating blend of fiction, autobiography, and history. Its narratives are unfolded with a melancholy ever the domain of Saturn and, like its rings, created from the fragments of shattered worlds.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***An ex-library copy of the second impression of the hardcover issue of the first UK edition of W. G. Sebald's 'The Rings of Saturn'. This hardback issue was issued simultaneously with the more commonly found wrappers issue, and was probably intended mainly for library distribution (as per this copy). Copies of the first three impressions in hardcover in any condition are now scarce. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
