Tight, square, uncreased spine has some toning and a small, cosmetic abrasion. Clean, unmarked interior. Covers have some very light edge-wear and areas of subtle soiling/rubbing. There is a very light crease to the upper fore-edge corner of the front cover. Fantastically morose cover portrait (credited to Sewell) on this novel by the writer/artist who W. H. Auden called 'that lonely old volcano of the Right'. This is the second book in The Human Age trilogy, which was patterned after Dante's Divine Comedy, and it relates a journey through Purgatory and ends with an angelic battle. A scarce reprint published by John Calder, who was key in launching the careers of nouveau romanists Alain Robbe-Grillet, Marguerite Duras, and Nathalie Sarraute. 254 pp.

paperback. Good. Access codes and supplements are not guaranteed with used items. May be an ex-library book.
