Sobre este artículo
London: Chatto & Windus, 1972. Signed by the author on the title page, this excellent, clean presentation copy from the library of Laurie Lee is dedicated on the fly-leaf by Kavanagh 'Love to Laurie and Cathy from Patrick, September 1972'; laid in is the accompanying letter from Kavanagh to the Lees: 'I was very touched yesterday when a boy from the Radio Times called and told me you wondered where your copy of A HAPPY MAN was! The answer is, here, with my love.' Kavanagh then continues with tongue-in-cheek lamentations of the changes in the packing department at Chatto's; enquiring if Lee had a hand in obtaining Kavanagh his work making films at the BBC; and referencing Koestler, and Julian Symons' suspicion that this novel contains symbolism. Publisher's orange cloth over boards, light pushing to spine ends, slightly dusty top edges; tightly bound, hinges good; first hint of spotting to inside rear panel. Dust-jacket complete, unclipped, slightly rubbed and chipped at spine ends, one closed tear (7mm) at top of front panel, rubbed at rear corners. Pages clean and unmarked.
