First edition, first printing. Published by Chatto & Windus in London, 1990. This is a near fine copy. The dust wrapper, illustrated with a fine painting by Edward Burne-Jones, has some light wear at the spine tips and top and tail edges. It has not been price clipped, showing the original £13.95 net price. The boards are free from notable chips and marks, with a small tear to the tail of the spine. The text blocks are mostly clean, though slightly foxed and toned. It is free from previous owner’s ink, but has a crimped previous owner’s stamp to the front fly leaf. Overall, this is a near fine copy.

A novel of historical metafiction, this best seller won the Booker Prize in 1990. The Times listed Byatt as one of the 50 greatest British writers since 1945.
