Description

First Edition, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

First edition. Blaise Gavender is a psychotherapist with a wife and a sixteen-year-old son, living a comfortable life. Unknown to his wife, he has been having an affair with another woman for nine years and has an eight-year-old son with her named Luca. He is forced to finally come clean when his youngest son secretly visits his marital home. Written by Dame Jean Iris Murdoch, an Irish and British novelist and philosopher best known for her novels about good and evil, sexual relationships, morality, and the power of the unconscious.

Condition

In the original full cloth binding. Externally, excellent. Original unclipped dust wrapper is very smart with light wear to the extremities and minor sunning to the spine. The odd small mark to the panels. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright and clean throughout.

Fine
