About This Item
A superb first printing of the first UK edition [Macmillan (London 1976)]. The book is in fine condition and is signed by Muriel Spark directly on the front free endpaper. The book has no remainder marks, a tight and square binding, no owner inscriptions or highlighting and no staining or marking. The dust jacket is nearly fine, is not price-clipped (£3.95), and has only light creases at the head of the spine and no chips or tears. The jacket has very minimal shelf wear. Jacket is now protected by an archival book cover. Please contact us for further information and/or pictures of this wonderful, collectible book.
