About this Item

Paperback edition - the book was published shortly afterwards in hard covers by Ballantine using the same basic design for the jacket illustration by Joe Mugnaini but in a much plainer form. The book has been quite badly bound so that the text block protrudes from the cover along the right edge and is uneven in places - the binding feels secure but the book needs careful handling however. There is a little edge tearing to the first page and to pages 179 to 182. The spine has quite heavy edge rubbing but the front and rear covers are clean and unmarked other than a little reading creasing down the right side of the rear cover. Date and short note in ink to the top left corner of the inside of the front cover. Name in pen to the top right corner of the first page. The pages are browned with a small spot to page 147 but otherwise unmarked. Also contains two short stories - The Playground and And the Rock Cried Out with illustrations by Mugnaini at the beginning of each of the three stories. First printing. Seller Inventory # 019868

Shipping Terms:

Orders usually ship within 2 business days.

UK Orders: Shipping costs are based on books weighing 2.2 lb, or 1 kg. If your book order is heavy or oversized, we may contact you to let you know extra shipping is required. If you are buying a small paperback or another small book then the postage and packing will generally be reduced by �1.50 and I will reduce the charge before processing your order.

European Orders: Shipping costs are based on books weighing 800g. For European orders I have only quoted a price for air mail. Not all European countries have been added so your shipping may appear high. Please note that I will adjust the charge I make if this is the case and postage to Europe will be lower than the rest of the world. If you are buying a small paperback or another small book then the postage and packing will generally be reduced by �1.50 and I will reduce the charge before processing your order.

Other overseas orders: shipping costs are based on books weighing 800g. I will generally use whatever method is covered by the standard postage charge but if you specifically wish to have it sent surface or airmail or anything else please ask and I will amend the charge accordingly. Please only choose the cheaper surface mail option if you do not mind waiting - the suggested upper time limit for this form of delivery is 60 days and it can take that long - and sometimes a bit longer. If therefore you wish to receive the book in 2-3 weeks then please opt for the more expensive postage option which will guarantee airmail delivery. If you are buying a small paperback or another small book then the postage and packing will generally be reduced by �1.50 and I will reduce the charge before processing your order.

Books are usually wrapped in bubblewrap and then in cardboard. Please ask if you have any particular requirements.
