V. S. Naipaul
A Bend in the River
New York: Knopf, 1979
First printing
Now rather scarce, this is named one of the best 99 novels since 1939, by Anthony Burgess and is a true first edition.
Unclipped jacket is excellent.
A stark depiction of what it feels like to be at the bottom of an unstable society in a modern African country, at the whim of a capricious dictator and his youth gangs.
Hardcover.
