Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. London. Chatto & Windus. 1971. First Printing. No later dates shown on copyright page. Hard Cover. Dark brown boards with gilt titles to spine. Minor wear at the spine ends. Former owner name on the front free endpaper and a little toning at the fore edge. Book is in near fine condition. Clipped dust wrapper with wraparound design by John Sergeant. Minor knocks to the top corners and some wear at the head of the spine. Presents well in archival wrap. In very good plus condition. The complex story is set in London and involves a large number of characters, many of whom are related to each other by family or marriage. The "accidental man" is the hapless but charming Austin Gibson Grey, whose actions drive much of the plot. The book's main moral theme is the individual's responsibility to others. Coincidence and accident play a major role in the plot, in which the efforts of supposedly well-meaning characters to help each other often fail, while others fail to act when they could be of help. The book was generally well received by contemporary reviewers, who viewed it as mainly a comic novel. Seller Inventory # YR3JUL30002
