About This Item
306 Pages. First Edition by the full number line. Inscribed and signed by the author to a good friend.
This is an unusual novel about the end of the world through one man's eyes and in an A - Z encyclopedic form. The book's dust jacket has two small repaired tears (top of the spine and on one corner) one other corner with a worn mark on it, a worn area at the top of the spine, and a vertical scratch on the rear cover. The interior book, however, is in Fine condition with no visible extraneous markings (other than the author's inscription and signature), or detriments/distractions throughout the book and thus has all of its printing in a very well-preserved and enjoyable condition and has its sewn-in bindings in a tight and therefore sound condition.
If you order this book from us, it will be carefully wrapped up, padded, boxed, and then sent right away to you, and will come with our absolute appreciation for your interest in the book and your order of it.
