About this Item

Seventh printing of the first UK edition, published in 1990. The book was very successful in the UK, and was reprinted three times in 1988 (the year of publication) and twice more in 1989 before this printing. Translated from the Spanish by Edith Grossman. ***Near fine in forest-green cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. The boards are clean with just light handling marks to the front board. Head and tail of spine just slightly creased. Corners sharp. Page block edges unusually clean. Internally also near fine with no inscriptions. No foxing. Pages clean. Spine tight with no reading creases. ***In a very good colour illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of �11.95 net. The dustwrapper is complete and undamaged, with just very slight creasing at the extremities. No chips or tears. A couple of small indentations to the front panel at the edge of the spine. The spine of the dustwrapper is hardly faded at all [much less than is often found with this title]. The dustwrapper would be described as near fine, except that the front flap has a couple of vertical creases. ***352 pages. 242mm x 165mm. ***'In a novel unequalled since his masterpiece "One Hundred Years of Solitude", M�rquez tels a love story which will haunt and inspire his readers for generations.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***A later seventh printing of the first UK edition. The book went through a number of reprints soon after first publication. A very nice reading copy in the original hardback format. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
