Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First UK edition of the author's third novel about the rise and fall of Manley Halliday, who some critics think is a possible stand-in for F. Scott Fitzgerald. Pale blue-gray cloth binding is sunned and a little soiled. Minor spine lean, but a very good copy in the outstanding price-intact dustwrapper. This is a striking image. It has some minor chipping, and is now protected.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. A great novel, the author's third, and this is the first printing of the world first edition. The jacket is worn, es[pecially on the spine and rear turnaround, but essentially, now that it is safely protected, it looks good. Broken join between the cover and the text block. Some tanning to the end papers. Other than that, this has no marks, the text block is firm. Slight;y abraded top of the binding, mainly back cover. Gilt titling bright. Not a perfect example, but it is still worth the price. Language: eng Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng.
