Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. SIGNED to title-page in the author's black, fountain pen ink. A scarce first edition thus in this signed state, and a key title in the increasingly popular "Penguin John Le Carré Hardback Collection." An exciting item. It's interesting to note how few of the titles issued in this elegant, uniform set of his novels ended up being signed by the great man: there was no scheduled, official signing event, and the author, in any case, was in his late eighties at this stage of his career. (This particular example is one of the Cornish copies that were signed locally at an independent bookshop in December 2019). As such, of all the various editions issued over the years of this masterwork, we believe this edition is destined to remain an extremely uncommon one, and one rich in rarity appeal. A truly fabulous copy, without flaws; a super investment, being a Very Fine (uncirculated) copy in a Very Fine example of the blue-and-white design dust-wrapper. (N.B. This jacket, in this instance, is not devalued here by the signed sticker roundel that seems to affect most).
