About This Item
London: Eyre and Spottiswoode, 1962. UNCORRECTED PROOF for the First UK Edition, preceding all others. Rare.
Basis for the 1965 film starring Laurence Harvey and Jean Simmons. Sequel to the author's first novel, "Room at the Top" (1957).
Very Good in publisher's card wrappers, spine lean and slight roll, with a rubbed and creased spine (some titling affected). Light foxing on the front wrapper and top page edges, tide mark to the top right corner of the first 3-4 leaves.
