About this Item

First Edition, with the dust-jacket, of the author's first novel. A few small spots of foxing to the fore-edge of the pages. No previous owner's inscriptions or any other markings inside or out. An near fine copy in a near fine price clipped dust jacket. McEwan's haunting first novel marked him as a bold new voice in British literature. It tells the story of four orphaned siblings who decide to hide their mother's body in the basement encased in cement in order to avoid being split up by social services. As they struggle to maintain their secret the two older siblings begin to experience incestuous longings for each other. Seller Inventory # 1040
