First Edition. First edition of Beckett's first proper, commercially published book, following his essay on Joyce and the very slim volume of the poem Whoroscope. Issued as a title in the Dolphin Books series with cover art by Edward Bawden.
Federman and Fletcher 7, one of 3,000 copies in total,400 of which were remaindered. Paper-covered boards decorated in brown. Slight spine sunning as usual and neatly closed snag at top of spine but a clean sound copy.
Written by Dr Jeremy Parrott, who has the book in his hands. Nothing here is generated from a catalogue record.
