Sobre este artículo
London: Jonathan Cape, 1952. First Impression. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. A virtually flawless example of the first UK edition of the author's second book, in the stunning red, white, and black wraparound dust jacket, illustrated by Laterka and priced 12s/6d. Fine (and apparently unread) publisher's blue cloth stamped in silver on the spine and upper cover; Fine (hint of rubbing to one end of spine and front flap corners) pictorial jacket. Yet another example of the value to be found in the graphically superior designs of most UK editions of American authors' works (our specialty). N. B. With few exceptions (always identified), we only stock books in exceptional condition, with dust jackets carefully preserved in archival, removable mylar sleeves. All orders are packaged with care and posted promptly. Satisfaction guaranteed.

Sinopsis
Barbary Shore is Norman Mailer's second published novel, written after Mailer's great success with his 1948 debut The Naked and the Dead. It concerns a protagonist who rents a room in a Brooklyn boarding house with the intention of writing a novel. Wounded during World War II, he is an amnesiac, and much of his past is a secret to himself. After Rinehart & Company published the novel in 1951, it received poor reviews and sold poorly.
