THE BURNING BOOK An Other Poems

First edition, first printing. Inscribed presentation copy from the author to his sister. Publisher's original bright pink cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. A very good copy, the binding square and firm, the contents with some spotting to the margins throughout. Complete with the lightly rubbed and nicked original dustwrapper which has a small patch of fading to the bottom of the spine. Not price-clipped (£3.95 net to the upper front flap). Loosely laid in is an autograph letter signed "Hal" sending the book and catching up with family news.

Inscribed by the author to his sister in black ink on the front endpaper "Margaret / With love from Hal / November 1982". The author's second poetry collection.
