Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. Jacket by Tom Etherington (illustrateur). 1st Edition. First edition, first impression with full number line. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of largely orange jacket and spine, some very slight damp cockling to bottom of front and back jackets not affecting underlying boards, corners very slightly rubbed, not price clipped (£14.99), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 200pp. It is 1950 and Nikolai Lobachevsky, great grandson of his illustrious namesake, is surveying a bog in the Irish Midlands, where he studies the locals, the land and their ways. One afternoon, soon after he arrives, he receives a telegram calling him back to Leningrad for a 'special appointment'. Lobachevsky may not be a great genius but he is not foolish: he recognises a death sentence when he sees one and leaves to go into hiding on a small island in the Shannon estuary, where the island families harvest seaweed and struggle to split rocks. Here Lobachevsky must think about death, how to avoid it and whether he will ever see his home again. Quite scarce in this first impression. N° de réf. du vendeur 011022
