About This Item
London: Hamish Hamilton. A near fine copy of the UK first edition (some light smudging to top of textblock), first printing hardback - in a near fine dustjacket (slight shelfwear and one tiny crease to top of spine - not price-clipped) - fitted with a removable, clear mylar sleeve - All my books are always securely packed with plenty of bubblewrap in professional boxes and promptly dispatched (within 2-3 days) - "François Besson listens to a tape recording of a girl contemplating suicide. Drifting through the days in a provincial city, he thoughtlessly starts a fire in his apartment, attends confession, and examines, with great intentness but without affection, a naked woman he wakes beside. And, as Besson moves through an ugly and threatening rain, his thoughts eventually lead to violence, first turned outward and then directed languidly against himself" - SIGNED & DATED "2010" BY THE AUTHOR @ A RECENT LONDON EVENT - Pictures available upon request. . Near Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 1967.
