A Pagan Place
London, Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1970 (first edition).
Octavo, 223 pages.
Papered boards a little bumped at the extremities and lightly sunned near the edges; edges slightly marked; a very good copy with the unclipped dustwrapper slightly rubbed with minor surface chips at the extremities and with a few tiny splits to the head and foot of the spine.
Inscribed and signed by the author to fellow-writer Geoffrey Dutton ('Dear Geoffrey with much love. Edna'] . Loosely inserted is an autograph letter signed by Edna O'Brien, presenting the book ('my new novel which I hope you will have a chance to read before I see you') to Dutton and discussing arrangements to meet in Adelaide [at the forthcoming biennial Festival of Arts in March 1970].
