A propos de cet article

First impression of the true first edition, with the number '1' on the printer's page. ***Near fine in navy-blue cloth-covered boards with white titles to the spine. The boards are clean and unmarked. Head and tail of spine slightly creased. Corners sharp. Very slight reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. The page block edges are tanned but clean. Internally also near fine with no inscriptions or annotations. No creases or tears. Pages clean - just lightly tanned as usual (cheap paper stock used by the publisher). ***In a near fine colour-illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of £16.99. The dustwrapper is complete, with just very light rubbing to the edges. No creases, chips or tears. No fading. Dustwrapper bright. ***224mm x144mm. 226 pages. ***'Toby Litt FRSL (born 1968) is an English writer and academic based at the University of Southampton. A short story by Litt was included in the anthology "All Hail the New Puritans" (2000), edited by Matt Thorne and Nicholas Blincoe, and he has edited "The Outcry" (2001), Henry James's last completed novel, for Penguin in the UK. In 2003 he was nominated by Granta magazine as one of the 20 "Best of Young British Novelists", although his work since then has met with mixed reviews, one reviewer in The Guardian writing that his novel "I Play the Drums in a Band Called Okay" "goes on --- and on, and on. There is plenty of story here, but little plot, and no tension."' (Wiki) ***'"Ghost Story" speaks of love and pain, intimacy and estrangement, inspired by events in the author's life - themselves the subject of the non-fiction 'preface' to the book - this is an honest and intensely emotional exploration of what it means to love and to mourn. It is Toby Litt's finest novel to date.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper). ***First impression of the true first edition, complete in the original dustwrapper, in very nice bright collectable condition. ***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.…
