EXILE AND THE KINGDOMS

First UK, first printing. Original green cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in the Patricia Davey designed dustwrapper. A very good copy, the binding square and firm, the extreme top edge of the cloth boards with slight fading. The contents, with a previous owner's name and date to the half title, and foxing to the prelims and closed text block edge are otherwise clean throughout. Complete with the lightly rubbed and nicked dustwrapper that is spotted to the rear panel and clipped and re-priced by the publisher to the lower front flap.

A collection of six short stories by the Nobel Prize winning writer and philosopher Albert Camus, each exploring concepts common to the schools of existentialism and absurdism.
