Beschreibung

First English-language edition. Crown 8vo. 268pp. Beige cloth lettered in gold at the spine and upper board and with an ornate illustrated decoration. Just a hint of spotting to the edges and a touch of darkening to the cloth. Some spotting to the endpapers and to four or five preliminary and concluding leaves. A very good copy in very good dust wrapper designed by Hans Feibusch, lightly tanned at the spine panel, with a touch of edgewear and three or four tiny fractions of edge-loss. The wrapper is compete with the original wraparound band noting a price reduction (3/6 - reflected on a sticker to the base of the front flap) and also suggesting a little hesitancy with the title, which appears here as 'The Celibates'. A very good copy of the author's first major work, winner of the Grand prix de littérature de l'Académie française. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers ARC93247
