Soft cover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: Poor. Limited Edition. 27 x 21 cm .753 pages of French text on 'Velin san bois' (expensive paper) the pages are uncut for half of this copy, presumably the reader died while reading or his paper knife became too blunt. This is a limited Edition (247 of 3003). This item must qualify for the heaviest ever work of fiction prize. I have to confess that I thought it was a non-fiction account on the Ivory Coast when I bought it. It would seem that the work is still much sought after if perhaps only in the Romand. The spine at the bottom has started to collapse due to the massive weight and strain and and it has been cellotaped This is an impressive example of Swiss publishing standards with the first letter of each paragraph printed as in a Book of Hours so the initial letter takes the space of three or four lines of text. Truly amazing item! Extra postage will be paid out of the asking price.OUCH!
