Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Here is the First American Edition of "Negatives" by Peter Everett, a British novelist. The book was published in 1965 by Simon and Schuster. This is the hardcover format, with the handsome - and mysterious - dust-jacket fully intact. It is now out of print. The jacket's blurb gives full notice of the book's strangeness : "In the sitting room of a run-down London house, a man and a woman move through the cluttered rooms in heavy Victorian dress - although the time is the present day. He - who is perhaps Theo - enacts the role of Dr. Crippen. She - who is perhaps Vivien - is at times his beautiful Belle, at times Ethel le Neve, for whom Belle was murdered; at times she is Ethel disguised as a boy. So it is that they are able to make love. Within this erotic structure Vivien rules; the man submits - curiously detached from his passion - in a game that is not of his choosing. "Into this menage already saturated with sexuality comes another figure: a woman infinitely depraved, a true voyeur, whose own sensual power finds release in destruction. With disinterested malice she creates for Theo a wholly new fantasy - his own tremendous game - which comes to absorb and possess him totally. The catalyst then departs, leaving the man and the woman to play out their now opposing roles to the shattering end."
