Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Good. Condition of this First Edition is VERY GOOD. DJ is GOOD, with a few nicks and rubs. Only negative in the book (and the reason for this very low price) is that on the fep, the top corner has been removed, apparently as a previous owner removed his name. O/W, a very nice copy.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Braby, Ion. The flower in the gutter. First edition, inscribed by the author to ffep. London: Michael Josep, 1951. Hardback, Good, no dustjacket. Grey cloth, sunned to edges, tanned to spine, bumped to corners, with small marks and blemishes. Light damage to top of spine. Bindi…ng firm. Light tanning to endpapers. 320pp., contents clean and bright. "As a documentary of the last days of the old Berlin, or the first somewhat unreal weeks of Russian administration, his report is acceptable, in spots even convincing. Yet he gives neither his heroine nor his other characters any depth. In a sort of cheerful sleep- walker fashion, Veronika goes through experiences which would leave the most strong- willed person dazed for weeks. One waits in vain for the main story, the pivotal point: it's rather like listening to an overture, without the three-act opera it was supposed to introduce" (New York Times review).
