Sobre este artículo
London: Vintage, 2007. 1st. h/b. Very good, limited edition (no 683/1500) and signed to half title, in illustrated/gilt thick board slip case; some bumping and wear on spine & boards (no d/j). Text block tight and unmarked.. 8vo (230 x 150 / 9"" x 6""). Mike Engleby has a secret... This is the story of Mike Engleby, a working-class boy in the seventies who wins a place at an esteemed English university. A man devoid of scruple or self-pity, Engleby provides a disarmingly frank account of English education. Yet beneath the disturbing surface of his observations lies an unfolding mystery of gripping power. When Jennifer, the fellow student he admires from a afar, disappears the reader has to ask: is Engleby capable of telling the whole truth? 'His most brilliant novel yet' Daily Telegraph
