About this Item
Flat-signed by the author to the title page. Cardiff-born Azzopardi's debutThe Hiding Placewas shortlisted for the 2000 Booker prize and was set, uniquely, among the immigrant Maltese community in Cardiff's 1960s Tiger Bay. That very well crafted sense of time and place is anexcellent example of new Welsh writing. This book appears unread with no foxing, but some tanning started to page edges. Seller Inventory # 974

In the UK, we normally use Royal Mail. POSTAGE IS FREE WITHIN THE UK.
Different postage rates are applied at checkout for customers ordering from outside the UK. The rates shown are INDICATIVE ONLY based on packages of up to 2kg. Exceptions will be discussed on a case by case basis. POSTAGE MAY BE ADJUSTED UP OR DOWN and you may receive a notification advising a change of charge to your payment method.
We deliberately recycle packaging. Your books will be given much care and attention before dispatch and will be sent in pre-used materials.
As a matter of course, all our books are cleaned sensitively, researched, catalogued, photographed and thus treated with the respect a vintage artefact deserves. We then re-cover most of our books in new, industry standard protective wrappers. These are inert, acid-free, and will not harm the book or dust jacket. We don't do this only if there is already a clean and serviceable wrapper on the book, or if to remove a previous covering would cause damage.
