About this Item

First UK edition, first printing. Publisher's original grey cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in the Jan Pienkowski illustrated dustwrapper. Top edge purple. An excellent near fine copy, the binding firm with a small bump to the outer edge of the upper board, the cloth and gilt bright and fresh. The contents are clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the lightly rubbed dustwrapper that is just a little nicked at the head of the slightly faded spine, and otherwise without loss or tears. Not price-clipped (21st net to the lower front flap). Nominated for the 1965 Nebula Award. China Mieville, in selecting this novel as one of his top weird fiction books of all time (The Guardian, 14 May 2002), writes "It's infuriating to have to choose just one of Dick's works he is the outstanding figure in SF. In the end I went for Stigmata because I remember how I felt when I put it down. Hollow and beaten. I kept thinking: 'That's it. It's finished. Literature has been finished'".
