THE TOWN

First UK edition, first printing. Original orange boards with gilt titles to the spine, in the Dick Hart illustrated dustwrapper, complete with the publisher's wraparound band. An excellent near fine copy, the binding square and firm with slight fading at the very edges of the spine tips. The contents are clean and bright throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the original dustwrapper that is a little toned at the spine and has a short closed tear to the top edge of the front panel. Not price-clipped (16s on the lower front flap). Complete with the blue wraparound band which is also a little toned to the spine, otherwise bright and intact. A lovely copy.

The second volume in William Faulkner's Southern Gothic 'Snopes' trilogy, which traces the fraught rise of a large Mississippi family.
