Mal de Amor

Santiago de Chile: LOM Ediciones, 2007. Third edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Toral, Mario. White jacket front with beautiful watercolor by Mario Toral and black jacket back have no rips or tears and are very clean wit only a few smaller-than-pinhead-size black spots near front fold. Only visable sign of wear on jacket is a bit of rubbing at the top spine edge. Jacket looks great in its fresh mylar cover. Black paper-covered boards show only the merest hint of rubbing at top and bottom spine edges. "Mal de Amor" is stamped in front board. Signed by poet, Hahn, in blue ink and by artist, Toral in orange felt tip on free front endpaper. Apparent gift inscription in Spanish (I don't read Spanish and script isn't clear enough for Google Translate) also on free front enepaper. Interior is otherwise clean and unmarked throughout. Filled with poetry by Oscar Hahn and watercolors by Mario Toral. Oscar Hahn is a Chilean writer and poet and winner of multiple awards, most notably the Chilean National Prize for Literature. Mario Toral is a Chilean painter and photographer.
