Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. SIGNED ON THE TITLE PAGE, and with a DEDICATION. First printing of the world first edition hardback, and with no marks except for the author's. A masterpiece by a still underrated writer and rare to have a copy in this FINE condition. Unclipped perfect jacket,… protected. A great novel that convinces the lucky reader that they are in another time and place. Shortlisted for the Booker Prize, which it should have won, this is as good as the modern novel can expect to get. Imagination backed up with historical research. A fine book in a fine jacket. (A wonderfully great book is more accurate.) Language: eng Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng. Signed by Author.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Signed in black ink on the half title, this is a first printing of the American hardback, as stated on the copyright page. Simple signature, obtained - according to a pencil note on the front end paper - '1972 signed by RL at Essex University'. First… Edition, 1951. Bound in black cloth, green and lime yellow dustwrapper. Lowell's third book, following Lord Weary's Castle and Land Of Unlikeness. This copy is not price clipped but the jacket, which is now protected, is well used. The black binding is firm, and the text block is tanned, like most copies I'm afraid, because of the poor quality paper. Rare signature.
