First UK edition. In nice condition for its age. Minor bump to head of book spine and tanning to pages making them quite brown. The dust jacket is complete and still shows the price. SYNOPSIS: “Teenage Memoirs is a series in which leading authors write about their own teenage years, placing their personal experiences in the context of the dramatic cultural, social and political events and changes going on at the time. Adele Geras spent much of her early life in such distant corners of the British Empire as Nigeria, North Borneo and Tanganyika where her father carried out his duties as a ‘Servant of the Queen’. His heart, though, was in Oxford. When as a teenager, Adele visited Oxford for the first time for her university interview, she fell in love with the place at once. She went up in 1963, the year of President Kennedy’s assassination and the Beatles released their first LP.” IN STOCK FOR IMMEDIATE DESPATCH
