First edition. 8vo., original blue-green cloth, dust jacket. London, Thames & Hudson, 1958.

£150.00

The uncommon English issue, printed from the sheets of the Indiana University Press edition which was published earlier in the same year, and identical to it bar the addition of the Thames & Hudson imprint on the title page. Presumably, a Thames & Hudson price would have been attached, but this is absent. Beckett’s final work of commercial translation.

A very good copy, contents clean and unmarked, jacket slightly edge worn, spine panel slightly faded with chipping at ends, front turn-in fold just starting to split at head.
