This is a trade (large size : 135mm x 215mm) paperback in the Gollancz Collectors’ Edition Series (yellow covers).  Spine faded and some tanning to pages.

SYNOPSIS:  “Swept up by a time-flux, a man called Clay is flung impossibly far into the future and arrives on an Earth with no moon and no memory or knowledge of his culture’s greatest achievements. The intellectually superior and sexually ambivalent beings that now inhabit the planet have never heard of Homer or Galileo or Mozart or Shakespeare or Einstein. But it is an Earth without hunger and where death is no longer an issue, and where the physically changed beings can dissolve and fly through space. In their company, Clay embarks on an extraordinary odyssey encompassing billions of years, coming to understand that his own era is just a thread in the band of time and is only the dawn of man. What lies ahead is the time of the Son of Man.”
