The Beach of Falesa

by Dylan Thomas

  • Used
  • near fine
  • Hardcover
  • first

Published by Jonathan Cape, London; 1964. 8vo. First edition. Condition: Near Fine/Near Fine.

Bound in original yellow cloth boards, with gilt title to the spine. The binding is square, tight and clean, with just a touch of bumping to the edges. Inside the pages are clean and bright and free from blemishes or damage, with just a touch of toning and age spotting.

The book is housed in it's original dust jacket. The jacket is clean and smart, with just a touch of wear to the edges, including one small closed tear to the rear top edge.

In all, this is a smart example of this screen play, based on a story by Robert Louis Stevenson. It was finally made into a film a decade after the author's death. It tells the tale of trading and taboo on a South Sea Island.
