The Darling Buds of May

H.E. Bates
Michael Joseph, London · 1958

First Edition. The first of the Larkin chronicles, so memorably televised. Good reading copy of the first edition; spine sunned and lacking the Broom Lynne dw.

Written by Dr Jeremy Parrott, who has the book in his hands. Nothing here is generated from a catalogue record.
