Books

First Edition, First Printing. Book is fine except for a small scratch across fore edge and an ink spot on lower paste down. Dustwrapper with minimal rubbing along spine ends. Signed by the author on the title page below his printed name; judging from the signature in the early 80ies. Rushdie's first book, a complete dud, as promising as Raymond Chandler as a young love poet. Laid in is a note from Gollancz to reviewers announcing publication on 6 February 1975. CHF 1'200. This item is part of our Catalogue 4: The Rushdie Collection.
