A first UK (English translation) edition hardback first published in German under the title Die Letzte Welt. Bumped at head and tail of book spine. Tanning to pages and foxing to page edges not affecting text. The dust jacket is complete, still show the price, but is showing signs of wear to the extremities.
Translated by John Woods.
SYNOPSIS: “A young Roman, Cotta, sets out in search of the banished poet Ovid and his last greatest work, the Metamorphoses. In the rust-corroded town of Tomi, on the shores of the Black Sea he discovers an ominous world suffused in and dominated by Ovidian mythology, a world where ancient Rome meets the twentieth century, a world of decay on the brink of apocalypse.”
