£65.00
A first edition, first printing published by Michael Joseph in 1976. A near fine book without inscriptions – some spotting to the top edge. In the near fine unclipped wrapper.
The Boys from Brazil (1976) by Ira Levin is a suspenseful thriller centred on a sinister Nazi conspiracy. The novel follows Nazi hunter Yakov Liebermann, who uncovers a plan orchestrated by Dr. Josef Mengele to clone Adolf Hitler. The plot involves creating 94 identical boys, each placed in environments replicating Hitler’s upbringing, in hopes of creating a new Führer. As Liebermann races to stop the scheme, the story explores themes of ethics, genetic engineering, and the lingering horrors of the Holocaust. Levin’s gripping narrative combines historical reality with chilling science fiction, making it a classic of the genre.
