Sobre este artículo
London: Constable & Company, 1928. From the Bart Auerbach Collection. A few small stains and some light discoloration to covers, otherwise a very good copy without the dust jacket. 8vo. Original cloth. First edition. The dedication copy, inscribed by the author beneath the printed dedication ("To Caradoc Evans"): "From Con O'Leary Aug. 4, 1928." Caradoc Evans (1878-1945) was a Welsh story writer, novelist and playwright. This is the Irish writer Con O'Leary's best known work, a science fiction novel in which "a woman is given a drug that induces a range of Identity Transfer experiences, including life as a mouse and as her own betrayed husband" (Science Fiction Encyclopaedia, online).
