The dust jacket is complete, still shows the price but is showing some signs of wear to the extremities. Creased at top edge of rear panel and at the bottom of the jacket spine (to correspond with the bump)
Icelandic author Olafsson’s first novel to be published in English.
SYNOPSIS: “Peter Peterson is racked by nightmares of the crime he may have committed half a century ago, a crime of jealousy and betrayal that has shaped and overshadowed his life. These are his putative memoirs – the confessions of an Icelandic expatriate living out his final years in New York, a degenerate aesthete, rich and unscrupulous, a failed husband and father whose children are a ‘testimony to a mistake'”
