Hilde Spiel – The Darkened Room – First Edition 1961
£75.00
First edition, first printing. Published by Methuen in London, 1961. This is a very near fine copy. Beautifully illustrated by Jillian Willet, the dust wrapper only carries slight wear at the top and tail edges, with very minor bumping at the corners. It has not been price clipped, showing the original 16s net price. The original publishers buckram is clean and without notable wear. The gilt titling is bright and very attractive. The text blocks are bright and white, though there is very slight foxing at the top edge. Overall, this is a very near fine copy and is free from previous owners ink.
The novel traces the anxiety and life-changing events of protagonist, Lisa.
