About This Item
Travels with My Aunt is an entertaining, funny novel written in 1969 by English author Graham Greene (1904–1991).
The novel follows the travels of Henry Pulling, a retired bank manager, and his eccentric Aunt Augusta as they find their way across Europe, and eventually even further afield. Aunt Augusta pulls Henry away from his quiet suburban existence into a world of adventure, crime and the highly unconventional details of her past.
This is a Book-of-the-Month Club first edition, first printing, Viking Press 1970. 244 pages. Mauve boards with cream trim and gold and blue design. There is a little darkening to the cream—the spine.
The dust jacket has some wear—tiny tears at the top and bottom of the spine. The back of the dust jacket has had a piece of the text torn off—the paper isn't torn but the text is missing in a 2" area (see photo). The dust jacket is unclipped.
Inside, the pages are clean and clear and unmarked.
