Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition (REVIEW COPY). Fine in fine first-issue dustjacket (mylar-protected) with Hellman & Dunne blurbs back panel. Well-received first novel that however turned out to be plagiarized from Martin Amis's first book THE RACHEL PAPERS (1973). REVIEW COPY with author photo and slip laid in, plus photocopies of N.Y. Times Oct. 21/80 story, 'New Novelist Is Called a Plagiarist', and another short undated Times item 'Writer Apologizes for Plagiarism'. Amis himself revealed the plagiarism in a 1980 Observer (London) piece: "The boundary between influence and plagiarism will always be vague. Reading 'Wild Oats' it soon became clear to me that the boundary, however hazy, had been decisively breached.". Seller Inventory # 005203
