Item description from seller

First printing of the true first edition. ***Near fine in colour illustrated card covers. The covers are nice and clean with just light browning at the edges. No obvious faults - just very light rubbing at the edges. The spine is just very slightly faded - far less than is usually found. No reading lean to the binding and no reading creases to the spine. Spine tight. Page block edges quite clean - just some foxing and browning to the top edge. Covers bright. Internally also near fine with no inscriptions - just some rubbed out pencil marks at the top of the title page. Some light sporadic foxing to the inside covers - internal pages clean. No creases or tears. ***307 pages including notes on contributors plus eight unnumbered pages of adverts to rear and advert on rear pastedown. 210mm x 144mm. ***Contents: Don Bloch: The Modern Common Wind; Susan Sontag: Elias Canetti; Russell Hoban: Footplacers, London Transport Owls, Wincer Boise; Jonathan Schell: Nuclear Arms and the Fate of the Earth and other contributions by T. Coraghessan Boyle, Lisa St Aubin de Teran, John L'Heureux, Ted Mooney, Jorge Ibarguengoitia and Leonard Michaels. ***Published in Spring 1982, with the following publisher's synopsis: "The theme of this issue is the habitability of the earth, and it is in this context, not in the context of the direct slaughter of hundreds of millions of people by the local effects of nuclear weapons, that the question of human survival arises." ***A very hard to find first printing of this early issue Granta - whilst not as scarce as the first three issues, Granta 5 is becoming very uncommon now, especially in such well-preserved 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.
