1950-1957 Within the Labyrinth; The Volcanoes Above Us
What Our Customers Say...
Description
First Edition, With Dustwrapper
The first edition, first impressions of these two works in the publisher's original cloth bindings, with the original dust wrappers. Within the Labyrinth has an unclipped dust wrapper; The Volcanoes Above Us has a price-clipped dust wrapper. Lacking the front free end paper to Within the Labyrinth.
Previous owner's ink inscription to the half title page of Within the Labyrinth. Loosely inserted to The Volcanoes Above Us is a newspaper cutting concerning Norman Lewis.
Two novels by the notable author Norman Lewis (1908-2003), best remembered for his travel writing.
This set includes Within the Labyrinth (1950), concerning an Italian town devastated by a volcano and an imprisoned hero, and The Volcanoes Above Us (1957), about a Latin-American republic caught between ancient religion and industrial development.
Condition
In the publisher's original cloth bindings, with the original dust wrappers; one unclipped, one price-clipped. Externally, excellent. Lacking the front free end paper to 'Within the Labyrinth', the half title page to this work is also coming loose. Otherwise, internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. Odd spot to the first and last few pages, and to the fore edge, of 'Within the Labyrinth'. Dust wrappers are generally smart, with a little chipping to the dust wrapper of 'Within the Labyrinth', more so to the head of the spine of the wraps. Light edge wear to the dust wrapper of 'The Volcanoes Above Us'.
Very Good
