Description

A first edition, first printing published by Secker and Warburg in 1980. A near fine book with a trace of spotting to the top of the page block. In a near fine unclipped wrapper with the usual fading to the spine. Coetzee was awarded the 2003 Nobel Prize for Literature for 'the innumberable guises portraying the surprising involvement of the outsider'.

About Waiting for the Barbarians
