Sobre este artículo
The Viking Press, New York., 1980. First U.S. edition. Octavo. A 432-page novel. Cloth-backed boards.Presentation copy from the author, inscribed by him on the front free endpaper: ''For Angus McBean - almost my first photographer who wanted to take me climbing a ladder - Patrick White, Sydney 1980''. The recipient was the great portrait photographer, much of whose work had touches of surrealism. Hence perhaps the ladder, although one wonders which of his colleagues had beaten him to the idea. If indeed that's what White implies with ''almost''.A bit of spotting to front and rear free endpapers. Very good indeed in very good indeed dustwrapper slightly creased at the edges and with one nick. It seems the author signed or inscribed very few copies of this title.
Sinopsis
