Item description from seller

First UK edition, first impression. Some edge wear to top and bottom of bright unfaded fab jacket by artist and book illustrator Hans Tisdall (1910-97), corners rubbed and bruised, folds slightly rubbed, some slight spotting to page fore edges, not price clipped (18s), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 414pp. A struggling actor's last chance becomes an unforgettable Roman holiday. World War II derailed John Andrus's acting career. Marred by a facial scar and burdened by a new family, Andrus works for NATO in Paris. A producer from his past shows up with an attractive acting job, involving two weeks in Rome and a hefty salary. How can he pass it up? In Rome, Andrus quickly realizes that the job is not at all what he expected. Bounced between movie sets, directors, producers, and women, he grows more uncertain of his future with each passing day. By New York author Irwin Shaw (1913-84).
