'Bible-black humour...enough visitations, portents and religious lunacy to qualify as the second-greatest story ever told' - Elle 'It is as if a Faulkner novel had been crossed with Whistle Down the Wind and then narrated by a stoned blues musician' - Daily Telegraph Review. 'An explosion of linguistic brio and Gothic grotesquery, horrifying, funny and tragic'. (Michel Faber Guardian)
A used secondhand first edition Penguin vintage paperback.
Fiction paperback.
Penguin Books, England: 1990.
In very good condition, this was my spare copy so it only has shelf wear with a corner crease on bottom right front cover and minor edge scuffing. Intact and uncreased spine. There's a teen dint on the edge of the back cover with pale yellowing of the pages and edges. Otherwise you'll be the first to read this particular copy.
