Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Jacket by Michael Harvey (illustrator). 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. SIGNED, DATED AND INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR'S WIFE, IN BLACK PEN, ON FFEP 'For John and Hilda, From the author's wife, with love Tilli Edelman. June 1991'. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, top of page block dyed blue as issued, corners slightly bruised, not price clipped (25s), no other inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 244pp. Sir Geoffrey Orne-Campbell, chairman of a firm of Savile Row tailors, whose company is threatened with takeover. He's the 'Old Boy style of management', whereas Harry Levenson, the bidder, is a second generation Polish Jew. If Sir Geoffrey feels that Levenson has 'no roots', he does not recognize on the other hand that he has gone to seed. The novel which takes place 'all on a summer's night', deals with the impending takeover, while on the other hand Levenson's wife (insomnia, headaches, tedium) is having an affair with a young friend of her son. Israel Maurice Edelman (1911-75), was the Welsh born son of Russian Jewish emigrants who came to Britain to escape the Tsarist pogroms. He became a British Labour Party politician, broadcaster and novelist who represented Coventry constituencies in the House of Commons for over 30 years. Scarce signed. Signed by Author(s).
