About this Item
8vo. Quarter black cloth and three-quarter brown paper-coverd boards. xiv, 450pp. The 1st US printing of this masterpiece, originally published in the UK in 1991, here (in the author's opinion) in a more readable and handsome production, with an introduction by him and section-leading postcard photographs, not included in the 1st edition. The text also differs slightly. Very Good, the head edge slightly spotted, the boards with a couple of small bumps, in the jacket (in a removable plastic sleeve), with the usual line impressed by the cloth, the reverse toned, and the spine text a little faded (though legible). This copy has been signed by the author ('Iain') and inscribed to Andrew (Crozier); loosely inserted are a card (perhaps not complete) apparently for the original launch of 'Downriver', and a cutting of Anthony Burgess' review of the novel.
