Production crease the fore-edge of the back board. Top edge of page block lightly foxed. Internally also very good with no inscriptions. However, please note that there is significant production creasing affecting the top corner areas of pp.35-95 [please see scans] Pages clean with no foxing. Pale grey Hutchinson logo decorative front and rear endpapers. There is a very slight reading lean, but the spine is tight. ***In a near fine attractive wraparound colour-illustrated dustwrapper, that has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of £11.95 net. Slight creasing to the head and tail of the spine. Very small loss and rubbing to the top corners of the dustwrapper. No chips or tears. Dustwrapper bright with hardly any fading to the spine colour. ***224 x144 mm. 253 pages. ***'In a series of vividly realised scenes in Janvilliers, Paris and rural France we see the complex unfolding of a love affair as Anne struggles to unburden herself of her past and Hartmann fights a desperate battle with his conscience and with the unwanted feelings of his imagination. ***The Girl at the Lion d'Or is set against a background of social and political restlessness, the beginning of the downhill road to Vichy. ***The Girl at the Lion d'Or is a tour de force that will establish Sebastian Faulks as a novelist both of originality and exceptional power.' ***The uncommon first printing of the true first edition, in its original dustwrapper. This was Faulks' second novel, and the first with Hutchinson, and was rapidly reprinted. Second and third printings are much more common than this first printing, which must have had a much smaller print run. ***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., Books<
