Alexander Solzhenitsyn – A Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich – First UK Edition 1963
£95.00
First UK edition, first printing. Published by Gollancz in London, 1963. This is a near fine copy. The dust wrapper, in fine Gollancz yellow, has some slight closed tears throughout, notably at the spine tips. There are handling marks throughout. The boards are free from notable chips and marks and highly presentable in the original publishers red buckram. The text blocks are mostly clean throughout, though slightly dulled in places. Overall, this is a near fine copy.
Translated by Ralph Parker. The publication was an extraordinary event in Soviet history as it was the first time an account of Stalinist repression had been widely distributed.
