A propos de cet article

First impression of the first UK paperback edition, with the full number-string sequence: 1 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2 on the printer's page. The paperback edition was published simultaneously with a low print-run hardback edition, which was aimed mainly at libraries. Translated from the German by Michael Hulse. Illustrated with black and white photographs throughout. ***Very good in illustrated card covers with integral French-flaps, with black titles to the spine and front cover. The covers are clean and unmarked - just very slightly rubbed. The book would be near fine but for a bump to the bottom outer corner of the page block (please see scans). Corners otherwise sharp. Unusually, there are no reading creases to the spine, and no reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. Covers bright and the spine remains completely unfaded (unusual for this title). Page block edges clean, with just a very small indentation to a couple of page edges (hardly noticeable). Internally also near fine with no inscriptions. Pages clean and bright. No creases or tears. Printed on nice quality paper. ***210mm x150mm. 296 pages. ***'"The Rings of Saturn" follows the trail of destruction that human beings have wrought on themselves, and yet it is an unremittingly fascinating blend fiction, autobiography, and history. Its narratives are unfolded with a melancholy ever the domain of Saturn and, like its rings, created from the fragments of shattered worlds.' ***'"The Emigrants" was one of the great books of the last few years and now "The Rings of Saturn" is a similar and as strange a triumph.' - Michael Ondaatje (Quote and review quote taken from the front flap and the back cover respectively) ***A first impression of the first UK wrappers issue of W. G. Sebald's "The Rings of Saturn", published simultaneously with a scarce hardback edition, in very good 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.…
