1 Barnes, Julian Metroland
London, United Kingdom Jonathan Cape Limited 1980 0-224-01762-4 / 9780224017626 First Edition, First Printing Hard Cover SIGNED by the Author
[1980]. Fine in a Near Fine dustjacket. Gray boards. The spine is stamped in silver. Octavo. Gray endpapers. An excellent, collector's-quality copy: clean, tight, square, and bright. All tips are sharp. The textblock is immaculate; no apparent reading wear and no previous ownership markings. The dustjacket, glossy in a mylar sleeve, has a slight 1/16" chip at the head of the spine; otherwise Fine. The original price is intact, along with the publisher's '6.50 net' price sticker affixed above it. SIGNED by the author -- without further inscription -- on the title-page. The author's scarce first novel.

"...Only the author of 'Flaubert's Parrot' could give us a novel that is at once a note-perfect rendition of the angsts and attitudes of English adolescence, a giddy comedy of sexual awakening in the 1960s, and a portrait of the accommodations that some of us call 'growing up' and others 'selling out'...."
