About This Item
New York:: Dutton,, (1979). Hardcover first edition -. Very near fine in a like dustjacket. (top of spine slightly pushed, but overall a very tight and clean copy.). First US printing. The rather uncommon second novel by this author best known for his later young adult fantasy trilogy - The Dark Materials. "Everything is what it seems: says the title page of Galatea. This paradox sets the key for a haunting fantasy that will remain in the reader's mind long after he has turned the final page. The novel's narrator is Martin Browning, a young musician. His wife, who is somehow involved in the arcane world of multi-national corporations, has mysteriously disappeared." Dust jacket praise from Michael Moorcock. 287 pp.
