First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Perhaps not surprisingly there is no other copy of this book that I can find for sale anywhere on the Internet. It is written in Hungarian, the language of the author and poet. From what I can surmise it was his first book, written when he was only 18 or 19. It appears to be a First Edition (NAP). The book has held up well. You can see from the photographs the white covers have a little soiling at their edges. The gilt lettering on the front is bright. The book is quite solidly bound, no issues there. The pages are very clean. However, there is age darkening around all the margins. There is no writing/underlining anywhere in the text. However the previous owner has signed his or her name with a date (1971) on the half-title page. The pages the book do not have any tears or creases. The dust jacket is slightly snipped at all four corners but is Not price-clipped. It is clean, and has only minor edge wear, with a tiny bit of paper loss off the bottom edge of the rear. (See photos). In Hungarian.
