About This Item
London: Jonathan Cape, 2011. 1st. hardback. Near fine, 1st edition, with unclipped d/j; boards clean, gilt titling bright; pages unmarked and binding tight.. 8vo: crown (200 x 140 / 8"" x 5_""). Nominated for the 2011 Man Booker prize. Tony Webster and his clique first met Adrian Finn at school. Sex-hungry and book-hungry, they would navigate the girl-less sixth form together, trading in affectations, in-jokes, rumour and wit. Maybe Adrian was a little more serious than the others, certainly more intelligent, but they all swore to stay friends for life.
