About This Item
London:: Faber & Faber,, (1982). Hardcover first edition -. Fine in a fine dust jacket (as new.). First printing. True first edition of a novel selected by the British Book Marketing Council as among the 20 greatest post-WWII American novels - this amazing short novel combines aspects of fairy tales, science fiction, and ho-hum reality - it has been described as a short book on how to keep house for a monster. While the 2017 award-winning film 'The Shape of Water' was not based on this title, there are some similarities, and those who loved that movie should appreciate this book as well.
