Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. [Date from the copyright page.] Foreword, Introduction, Notes, Bibliography, Index; xii, 143 pages. Original maroon cloth with lettering clear on the spine: a nice solid copy in a good-to-very good dustjacket; however, the interior is considerably marked in pencil by my philosopher-father---there is even a single line in red pen. My father nearly always restricted himself to a pencil; however, he used a fine red pen in the dozen or so books he was reading before his death. Not just because his eyesight was failing, I think, but also, perhaps, with the idea that those special passages would remain the better in his mind. [Please see my five images---I have included one of the worst (best?) marked-up pages.] "This book should enlighten all those who are curious about modern dramaturgy, and it affords the specialists in Beckett. Joyce, and Cervantes a firmly grounded, stimulating view of Beckett's oblique art and Joyce's fictional techniques."---from Wylie Sypher's foreword. [My father had several dozen Beckett titles; others are still being listed.] As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage. All books are wrapped with special care and are shipped promptly with tracking; international sales sent via global priority, also with tracking.
