About this Item

New York: Meridian Books, Inc., 1960. First printing September 1960" stated, but it's unclear whether that refers to this paperback printing, or to the Meridian hardcover edition. Softcover. Good. Pocket-size, 4 1/4 x 7 1/8. Edited, translated and introduced by Blanche A. Price; with a preface by Henri Peyre. A solid copy with spine that is creased but square and tight. No marks. Front cover with distinctive illustration is bright. I have rated this copy "Good only," however, because the ***top edge is heavily foxed***, with some speckles to the other edges as well. There are several stains to the pages and inside covers, and adhesive residue over the price on the front cover. Spine is faded. Not much wear to covers. First printing September 1960" stated, but it's unclear whether.
