Beschreibung

Third impression of the first UK paperback edition with number-string sequence as follows: 3 5 7 9 8 6 4. The paperback edition was published simultaneously with a scarcer hardback edition. Translated from the German by Michael Hulse. Illustrated with black and white photographs throughout. ***Very good in illustrated French-style card self-wraps, with black titles to the spine and front cover. Edges of covers just very slightly creased, mainly at the corners. Just the lightest of reading creases to the spine, which has none of the usual fading. Internally also very good with no inscriptions. Pages clean and bright. Would be near fine, except for a few top corner tips of the pages slightly creased. Spine tight. Covers bright. ***210mm x150mm. 296 pages. ***'"The Rings of Saturn" follows the trail of destruction that human beings have wrought on themselves, and yet it is an unremittingly fascinating blend fiction, autobiography, and history. Its narratives are unfolded with a melancholy ever the domain of Saturn and, like its rings, created from the fragments of shattered worlds.' ***'"The Emigrants" was one of the great books of the last few years and now "The Rings of Saturn" is a similar and as strange a triumph.' - Michael Ondaatje (Quote and review quote taken from the front flap and back cover respectively]. ***A third impression of the first UK paperback edition of W. G. Sebald's "The Rings of Saturn", published simultaneously with a scarce hardback edition, in nice collectable condition - printed on heavy high-quality paper. A nice reading copy in the original format. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
