Hamish Hamilton, London, 1957. First edition. Book condition: very good. Minor wear only. Light soiling to text block edges. Very slight occasional spotting. Pages slightly toned. Dust jacket: good. Unclipped. Generally rubbed and soiled. Some chipping to corners and spine a little faded. From the author The Go-Between. The story of Leadbitter, a gallant but hard-bitten and disillusioned ex-soldier who has invested his savings, and himself, in a car he drives for hire. Leadbitter is one of Hartley's best-drawn characters. A fabulous read even today.
