About This Item
Faber and Faber, London., 1991. New revised edition of a book originally published in 1971. Octavo. pp viii, 216. Wrappers - there seems not to have been a hardbound issue.Presentation copy from the author, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper: ''For Frieda with love from Daddy - 7th November 1991''. The recipient is his daughter. Frieda's other parent was of course Sylvia Plath. On the same page Hughes has also written ''Number 1/5'' which suggests this was one of the complimentary copies supplied to him by the publishers. It also makes this the de facto smallest limited edition of any of his books.Fine.
