About This Item
Rare copy of this early Ishiguro classic, first US edition with dust jacket in great shape. Some mild rubbing to DJ but overall great for age. Book is clean, boards are in great shape and spine is lovely as well. Hard to beat! Priced below every other comparable copy I could find. Photos available on request! I am new to Biblio but have sold books online and in brick and mortar contexts, as well as records, films, and other paper goods/media/ephemera for nearly 20 years, always happy to work with customers and I strive to satisfy no matter what!
