Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition. First printing of the true first edition of B. S. Johnson's scarce third experimental novel.

No significant creasing. ***183 pages. 222mm x 124mm. ***'B. S. Johnson's third novel is as original and well-written as "Travelling People" and "Albert Angelo", but in a far more subtle way. His descriptions of trawling and the sea are convincingly authentic, and his chief character's harrowingly honest memories and reflections add a counterpoint to make a serious statement of the author's attitude towards truth and the human condition.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'Bryan Stanley William Johnson (5 Feb 1933 - 13 Nov 1973) was an English experimental novelist, poet and literary critic. He also produced television programmes and made films. Johnson became depressed by his failure to succeed commercially and by mounting family problems. On 13 Nov 1973, aged 40, he took his own life. Johnson's following at the time of his death was small if enthusiastic, but he quickly acquired a posthumous cult following, helped by a critically acclaimed film adaptation in 2000 of the last novel of his to appear in his lifetime, "Christie Malry's Own Double-Entry."' (Wiki) ***First printing of the true first edition, complete in the original dustwrapper in nice, collectable condition, albeit with the small ink mark mentioned. Of interest to collectors of the experimental work of B. S. Johnson. First editions of this experimental novel are extremely hard to find now. Many copies would have gone to lending libraries and been discarded. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. John Holden (Jacket design) (illustrator).…
