First printing. Printed by Jonathan Cape, London in 2004. No Hardback edition published in the UK, thus the Paperback is the first printing. Vertical crease to the front cover ( due to the book having been opened ). There is the faintest of even age-related tanning to the text block. Publisher's price of £10.00 on the rear. Gwendoline Riley's second novel about a young woman returning to a cold, wet Manchester to share a flat with her best friend. Riley's first novel, 'Cold Water', won a Betty Trask Award and her latest book, 'The Palm House' has been Longlisted for The Man Booker Prize in 2026. Fairly scarce as a signed first and overall presenting well in Near-Fine condition.
