Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. 250pp. sq. 16mo, blue fine diagonal ribbed cloth, paper label. Label darkened and chipped, one margin torn, otherwise a nice copy; from the library of John Fowles, with his stamp. With fifty or so neat corrections in a contemporary hand on over thirty-five pages, mostly of punctuation and incidentals, but including some substantive alterations. The hand, evidently practised at correcting for the printer, is probably not authorial but the changes, which include the insertion of missing words and the revision of others, are certainly authoritative. Later editions are unchanged.
