0224525 Houghton and Mifflin, Boston, 1972, Stated First Printing. Hardcover, Very Good/Very Good 400 g; XIV, 114 pages, with original illustrated dustwrapper. Top edge of the text block was tinted pink by the publisher, the original boards shows no signs of damage, the dust jacket shows minor signs of handling, but is in very good condition nevertheless. Translated from the Afrikaans, this new novel is brilliantly fashioned around the correspondence between a popular novelist, the 44-year-old narrator, and an art student whom he never meets. The scene centres on archetypal Gothic Park, a paradise of projected love menaced and eventually destroyed by the treacherous, ambivalent outside world. -- front fold over blurb Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
