About This Item
London: Andre Deutsch, 1980. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. First Printing of the first UK edition. A very nice copy of this classic by the UK's most under-appreciated author and poet. The rear panel of the dustjacket is oddly tanned but overall a Fine copy in Near Fine unclipped jacket. SIGNED and humourously inscribed (for the seller in person) at the title page by the author.
