In this title, Salman Rushdie details the controversy surrounding the publication of The Satanic Verses and his defence of the novel. Given the recent circumstances, The Satanic Verses is likely to remain very elusive as a signed title, as it is highly unlikely that the author will undertake any more public signing events. A sharp copy of one of the author's key titles. More images available on request. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact.

Description:
The First UK printing published by Constable, London in 1928. The BOOK is in near Fine condition in the original variant binding of terracotta cloth, upper board and spine lettered in black. Some faint spotting to the edges and prelims. Free from inscriptions and erasures. The fragile WRAPPER is complete and is in Very Good++ or better condition. Some light markings and slight edge-wear. The wrapper is protected in a removable archival protector and carries a striking period design signed with the initials 'EJIA'. These initials must be those of Edward Jeffrey Irving Ardizzone and this wrapper artwork must have been one of his earliest commissions. Born in Ireland, this is O'Leary's best known work, a science fiction novel in which 'a woman is given a drug that induces a range of Identity Transfer experiences, including life as a mouse and as her own betrayed husband ' (Science Fiction Encyclopaedia, online). A very scarce survivor. More images available on request. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact.

Description:
An early UK printing published by Bristol, J.W. Arrowsmith, London circa 1918. Although the publishing details state first published in 1889, I believe this to be a later edition published as part of the 'Arrowsmith's 1/3 Net Series'. There is a penned dated inscription to the half-title : 'Red X Hospital , 1918' which I think is very likely to be around the publication date of this edition. The BOOK is in near Fine condition and appears unread. Some toning and light spotting to the text-block. Toning to the page edges due to the quality of the paper stock used with some offsetting to the blank end-paper. The scarce WRAPPER is complete and is in Very Good++ or better condition. Some light age related markings. The original publisher's price has been overlaid with a revised publisher's price sticker (price 1/6 net) to the spine. The colourful illustration to the front panel (unattributed) remains very bright. The 'Arrowsmith 1/3 Net' series were issued with 'specially designed pictorial wrappers'. The… Read More

A paper portfolio of 8 B/W prints by Franciszka Themerson with an index page is housed in a blue paper portfolio, the whole housed in the slipcase. The prints do not appear in the book.
