Beschreibung

In the Heart of the Country, J. M. Coetzee. 1977. Secker & Warburg. 8vo. First edition, first printing of Coetzee s second novel. This copy signed by Coetzee at the title page and additionally signed by political activist Hassim Seedat (1930-2019). Seedat was an attorney, chairman of the Global Organisation of People of Indian Origin (GOPIO) and is considered to have collected one of, if not the, most extensive collection of books, pamphlets and other material relating to Gandhi s South African years. While Seedat s signature is dated, Coetzee s is presumably contemporary to publication.

Publisher s original black cloth clean, the binding tight with a very minor reading lean. A few light spots at the edges, but the contents remain clean. Ink 271 on front pastedown, some light spots here and ffep, and to rear pastedown, else fine, the text itself bright and clean. An attractive example. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 404084
