Add to basketFirst edition, first impression, inscribed by the author in the year of publication on the half-title, "To Donn, Love, Roald Dahl, 1988". Matilda won the Children's Book Award in 1989. It formed the basis for both the 1996 film directed by Danny DeVito and the successful stage musical which premiered at the RSC's Courtyard Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon in November 2010. A film adaptation of the musical was released in December 2022. Octavo. With numerous in-text and full-page illustrations by Quentin Blake. Original red boards, spine lettered in gilt. With supplied dust jacket. Lightly marked and bumped, nick to spine foot, text clean; unclipped jacket with minor creases and pale foxing to flaps, else bright: a very good copy in near-fine jacket.
