Beschreibung

The first UK edition of William Burroughs' experimental science-fiction novel exploring themes of mind control, in the publisher's unclipped dust wrapper. The first UK edition. In the publisher's unclipped dust wrapper. First published in the US in 1962, with a revised edition, 50% longer than the original, published in 1967. The fourth novel of American author William S. Burroughs, known for his popular science-fiction and postmodern works. 'The Ticket That Exploded' forms part of The Nova Trilogy, a series of three experimental novels which all use the cut-up technique, where the text is rearranged to create a new text. This particular installment continues the adventures of Agent Lee, following his mission to put a stop to the mind control methods being used by the Nova Mob, a group of intergalactic criminals attempting to destroy the Earth. Bound in the publisher's cloth, with the original, unclipped dust wrapper. Externally, very good, with light bumping and a little fading to the head of the boards. A few spots to the fore edge. Dust wrapper is very good with light soiling, some rubbing to the joints, sunning to the spine and light edge wear. A few spots to the verso of the wrap. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. Very Good Indeed.
