Sobre este artículo
London: William Heinemann, 1932. First edition. Cloth. Good. 7.5" by 5". None. A nice first edition, second impression, of Graham Greene's second important novel, set on a long train journey. The first edition, second impression of this work; the character is refereed to as Mr. Quin Savory on pages 77, 78, 82, 98, and 131, rather than 'W. C. Savory' as he was referred in the first impression.'Stamboul Train' was the second significant novel published by Greene, taking place on a train journey from Ostend to Istanbul. A notable novel, it's described as melodramatic and thrilling, written to please the public after a couple of unsuccessful novels.Greene was one of the most popular authors of the twentieth century, known for his works 'Brighton Rock', 'The End of the Affair' and 'Our Man in Havana'. In the original publisher's cloth binding. Externally, smart. A few minor marks to the boards and spine. Light bumping to the head and tail of the spine and to the extremities. A few spots to the fore edge. Front hinge is a little strained. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and generally clean, with a few odd spots and handling marks. Good
