Sobre este artículo
London : New Fiction Press, [1952]. First edition : the variant listing six "Fourth Series" titles (and two "Specials") on the lower wrapper. The most notorious and most scrutinised of the books in the 1954 obscenity trial, with Heade at his very best on the front cover, with a tenderness sometimes lacking. Evidently based on James M. Cain's "The Postman Always Rings Twice", it is thought that the outline of the plot was supplied to Frances by Geoffrey Pardoe (Holland p.299). "Powerfully evokes the claustrophobic little café" (John Fraser). Crown 8vo (19cm). 128pp. Original pictorial stapled wrappers - a braceleted Heade blonde in lilac and an agony-or-ecstasy pose; minor wear at head; short split at foot; a few slight marks, but a very good copy. Just a single copy (British Library) located in major libraries worldwide. Williams and Holland 41.
