Illustrated dustwrapper with yellow and white coloured titles to the front panel and backstrip. Illustrated portrait of the author to the rear dustwrapper panel. "The country of Twilight lies, it is said in France, 'between dog and wolf'. The real becomes unreal – and the more sinister. In this indistinctness of truth and ideals to say becomes horrible and the comic leans towards black darkness. This is a novel about the twilight ways taken by money, by politics, by religion. It is about society, which is criminal, and is dust a crime novel." -- from the front fold over panel blurb. Softening to the backstrip and lower book corners. Browning of the textblock edges and pages. Minor rubbing to the dustwrapper edges and panels. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. [4], 200 pages.. Please refer to accompanying picture (s).
