About this Item

First edition, first printing. An exceptionally rare, desirable example of Ishiguro's delightful book - and the perfect collector's copy. TRIPLE SIGNED to title-page by Ishiguro, illustrator Bianca Bagnarelli, and musician Stacey Kent (for whom Ishiguro wrote the lyrics). All three signatures were obtained at Ishiguro's sole promotional event held at the London Southbank Centre. This world exclusive event took place on March 30th 2024 and this date has been added by Ishiguro beneath his signature - an uncommon additional touch that records the moment nicely. According to his publisher, there will be no further author events to promote the book. Provenance is important, of course, and is supported here with the inclusion of the following key items: the original event ticket; two original color photos (6x4) from the author(s) signing event; and the Southbank Centre's bookmark and events programme. A flawless book and (protected) dust-wrapper complete this perfect expression of one of Ishiguro's most intriguing publications. Offered by D B WATERS RARE BOOKS: Professional, full-time booksellers of fine, select 1st editions, established in 1998.
