Primary Colors*
by Anonymous (Joe Klein)
CLASSIC CHOICE.The best selling novel caused quite a stir on publishing, apart from the author stated as anonymous. Joe Klein was uncovered as its writer.. Very controversial then, but still attracts collectors and readers alike. Became an Oscar winning movie starring John Travolta. This copy has newspaper cuttings of that time, neatly pasted on front fly pages, giving further input of the uproar that the book caused when released. Does not detract from its condition, just makes it unique. (See images)...
