Sobre este artículo
Jonathan Cape Ltd: London, 1925. First edition of this classic novel set in the aftermath of the Irish Civil War, which was adapted numerous times, most famously by John Ford for RKO Pictures in 1935. Octavo, original cloth. Near fine in a very good dust jacket. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. An exceptional example. Set in 1920s Dublin in the aftermath of the Irish Civil War, the novel centers on "Gypo" Nolan. Having disclosed the whereabouts of his friend Frankie McPhillip to the police for a reward, Gypo finds himself hunted by his revolutionary comrades for this betrayal. It received the 1925 James Tait Black Memorial Prize.
