About This Item
London : Victor Gollancz, 1966. First edition. "Although his earlier books are now classics, some of his recent books are, in their own way, as attractive ... a young out-of-work actor who is persuaded to impersonate the heir to a rich, feudally-minded old lady ... an intelligent, relaxed comedy with criminal overtones" (Birmingham Daily Post, 15th October 1966). Crown 8vo (20cm). (192)pp. Original red boards, lettered in gilt; some spotting of edges, but otherwise a very good copy in the yellow dust-jacket printed in magenta and black - the jacket a little marked, with some minor wear, few nicks and one short tear. With the bookplate of the distinguished collector Peter Apap Bologna (1941-2019) on front pastedown.
