About this Item

xv+376; small chip to edge of front endpaper, browning to pastedowns, endpapers and front free fly, pencil scribble to frotn pastedown and a couple of small marks to front endpaper, rest of text seems to be clean and tight, possibly a few pencil marks and one page has signs of erased scribbling; covers have a few white spots to back outer edge but otherwise clean, however severely faded to spine region and moderately to most edges, small rub/nick to top front joint and slight corner knocking. While far from perfect this is an interesting reference work for anyone wanting to know the difference between a triolet and a villanelle or a trochaic trimeter and an iambic tetrameter, not to mention anacoluthon and hyperbaton. Note: quoted shipping rates are calculated for 500-700 gram net weight, cost will be modified up or down as appropriate outside this range. Size: 14.5 Cm x 21 Cm.
