Sobre este artículo
Souvenir Press 2007. Hardcover octavo (fine) d/w (near fine); all our specials have minimal description to keep listing them viable. They are at least reading copies, complete and in reasonable condition, but usually secondhand; frequently they are superior examples. Ordering more than one book will reduce your overall postage costs.
Sinopsis
