Dustwrapper crisp and bright. 242mm x 164mm. vi prelims plus 265 printed pages. ***'It has fallen to Lucius Valerius Quincius, reluctant supreme magistrate of the city of Tarcisis in Lusitania, to hold back the forces of chaos. In the twilight years of the Roman empire, with the forbidding sect of Christianity mushrooming within the city walls, and the barbarian Moorish hordes threatening without, this man must uphold the standard of moral courage in a disintegrating world. ***"A God Strolling in the Cool of the Evening" is the latest winner of Mobil's Pegasus Prize for Literature. First awarded in 1977, this prize recognizes distinguished work from countries whose literature is rarely translated into English.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***A first impression of the first UK edition, in near fine 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.
