Comments & Further Information

First UK Edition with a full 1 to 10 number sequence indicating a first printing. In very good condition for its age. Tanning to pages. The dust jacket is complete but there is some yellowing to the inside of the flaps and some scuffing to the bottom edge. It still shows the price.

SYNOPSIS: “A story narrated by Nelson, a young film student at New York University. At the centre are his ‘Aunt and Uncle’ and his sister Nar (short for Narcissus). His uncle writes spectacularly gloomy novels. Then an article appears in the Herald Tribune hinting that his last book was a thinly veiled memoir of the years he spent with the resistance in Italy during the war… and so the stage is set for complications, revelations of family secrets and much, much laughter.” IN STOCK READY FOR IMMEDIATE DISPATCH.
