Sobre este artículo
London: Longmans, Green and Co Ltd, 1960. First Edition of the author's first book. Small 8vo, publisher's original gray cloth, gilt lettered on the spine, and in the illustrated dustjacket. 256 pp. A fine copy with little evidence of age. FIRST EDITION OF THIS MACMILLAN FICTION AWARD WINNING NOVEL BY DAVID STOREY, THE FIRST BOOK BY THE AUTHOR. "The author knows intimately the curious world-in-miniature of Rugby's League - the back-biting and intrigue, the thrills, the anxiety, the atmosphere in the changing-room after the big match. He knows, too, the grime and smoke of a dour northern town that is the vivid background to his story. In his brilliant dialogue he has caught absolutely the characters of the football players and industrialists about whom he writes. This is a fascinating, witty, moving and, above all, very real and human book." - publisher
