Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First UK Edition. First Impression of Vonnegut's sixth book. 8vo: 217,[1]pp. Publisher's maroon cloth-effect paper-covered boards, spine stamped in gold, top edge stained rose pink; illustrated dust jacket by Jonathan Miller, priced 21s, printed in purple, pink, and black. Top stain a bit faded and dust-soiled, but an exemplary example, square, tight, clean, and bright (probably unread). Pieratt, Huffman-klinkowitz and Klinkowitz AF8. Currey, p. 503. "Most of Vonnegut's important themes are to be found in God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater, which ranks among his top three or four novels. (Mr. Rosewater is also significant because it marks the first appearance of Kilgore Trout, the recurring character who is one of Vonnegut's most popular creations.) God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater, like Slaughterhouse-Five, despite its pervasive, often flippant, humor, attains to an almost Dostoevskian understanding of the suffering of humanity and the necessity of realizing that 'all are responsible for all.'" (enotes) N. B. With few exceptions (always identified), we only stock books in exceptional condition, with dust jackets carefully preserved in archival, removable polypropylene sleeves. All orders are packaged with care and posted promptly. Satisfaction guaranteed.
