Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A first UK edition hardback in very good condition for its age. Bumped at head and tail of book spine.

SYNOPSIS: "The Zeitgeist is against Joseph: 1982 is an unfashionable time for his profession - even in Venice. A neighbouring prostitute who once glimpsed him at work could testify that Joseph's are not conventional abilities. Some would call him a magician, or a wizard, though a Renaissance magus might be nearer the mark. Suffice it to say that without an acquaintance with his special field, no magical operation could ever take place. Having cracked an arcane riddle, it is imperative that Joseph find someone not only to believe him but also to carry on the great endeavour. Only then can he quit the world in peace. The snag is finding someone." IN STOCK FOR IMMEDIATE DESPATCH.
