[EAN: 9780060120078], Used, very good, [PU: Harper & Row, New York, US], Jacket, A true US first edition/first printing, with the numbers 77 78 79 80 81 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 on the copyright page. This is Hughes' first major work after 'Crow' , and takes the form of a single long poem, in which an Anglican clergyman is taken away to the spirit world, and his human form replaced by a Doppelganager, who brings irreversable change to the Irish community in which he lives. The poem begins on the day the changeling is recalled to the spirit realm, and the original clergyman returned to the world. A powerful and original fable. This is a great copy. The brown and tan cloth boards are spotles, and the spine, with black lettering, unfaded. It is not an ex-library copy, and has no bookplates. Small inscription by previous owner to fep. Neatly price-clipped. A little sunning to jacket. Really nice copy of a scarce book. We protect all our books with a removable plastic cover, and send them to you with care., Books<
