About This Item
London: The Bodley Head, 1966. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 8vo., 313pp. Beautiful Unread First Edition of Greene's novel about Haiti and the despotic François Duvalier, Papa Doc. Made into the 1967 film of the same name starring Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton and Alec Guiness. Square, tight and clean throughout with little or no wear. Perhaps a hint at the heel but barely. Equally attractive unclipped dust jacket, (25s net), is fresh and bright with no chipping, creases, toning or tears. A gorgeous collectable copy at a great price.
