Description

First Edition, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, Scarce, With Dustwrapper

First edition. When the author had the disconcerting experience of a brief attack of hallucinations, he soon learnt that this was not nearly as rare as he supposed. Using these emotions, Waugh has made them into a light novel to delight those who live on the border line of sanity. Written by Arthur Evelyn St. John Waugh, an English writer of novels, biographies, and travel books who was also a prolific journalist and book reviewer.

Condition

In the original blue cloth binding. Externally, very smart with small marks to the rear board. Original unclipped dust wrapper is also very smart with light wear and the odd small closed tear to the panel edges. Light sunning to the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright and clean throughout.

Overall: Near Fine
