What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

The first edition, first impression of this work, in the publisher's original price clipped dust wrapper.

'Daniel Martin' follows the titular character, a Hollywood screenwriter who returns to England. The novel contains flashbacks to the childhood in the 1940s and his time at the University of Oxford, and reflections on his ex-wife and her sister, whom he was in love with.

A lovely first edition by Fowles, the renowned British novelist of works positioned between modernism and postmodernism, best known for 'The French Lieutenant's Woman', 'A Maggot', and 'The Collector'.
