First Edition
Condition: As New. First Edition. When Phillip Swallow and Professor Morris Zapp participate in their universities' Anglo-American exchange scheme, the Fates play a hand, and each academic finds himself enmeshed in the life of his counterpart on the opposite side of the Atlantic. Nobody is immune to the exchange: students, colleagues, even wives are swapped as events spiral out of control. And soon both sun-drenched Euphoric State University and rain-kissed University of Rummidge are a hotbed of intrigue, lawlessness and broken vows.'Not since Lucky Jim has such a funny book about academic life come my way' - Sunday Times .

Presentation copy from the author to "Derek" Roper, the then Senior Lecturer in English Literature at the University of Sheffield "with my best wishes, David Lodge".

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Poor. 1st Edition. First Edition (first printing). A presentation copy, inscribed by the author at the head of the front free endpaper : "To Nuala with love from David. Feb 1975" (the recipient presumably being his friend Nuala O'Faolain, the Irish journalist, author and feminist icon). 8vo. 234pp. Orange boards lettered in gold at the spine. Some quite light soiling to the boards, and a little bruising to the backstrip ends. Top edge dust soiled and lightly spotted, and with a trace of further light spotting to the free endpapers. Quite a nice crips copy in quite grubby, soiled, nicked, chipped and stained dust wrapper, with a lengthy tear to the front panel front flap fold. Not the nicest copy for sure and for some reason this book invariably has a fairly rotten wrapper these days but quite desirable with his contemporary presentation inscription. Winner of the Hawthornden Prize. The first volume of 'The Campus Trilogy', which was completed with 'Small World' (1984) and 'Nice Work' (1988). Inscribed by Author(s).

1st edition. Hardcover. Excellent cloth, extremely clean pages and endpapers, no marks or foxing, in a fine dustjacket, with no fade to the spine as is common. Laid in is a card signed by the author. This copy has two labels on the lower front endpaper, one of Clare Degener of the Sterling Lord Agency in New York who represented David Lodge in the USA, the other of Otto Plaschkes, a British fim producer who, just before his death in 1975, had optioned the book for a Hollywood production. Two interesting associations, plus the author-signed card and the unfaded spine, make this a unique first impression of Lodge's scarcest novel, hardly ever found in such superior condition. The first of Lodge's three novels satirising academic life, winner of the 1975 Hawthornden Prize.
