Malcolm Bradbury 

The History Man

Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1976. 

First American edition.  


230 pages. Small closed tear to top edge of DJ spine. Mild sunning to DJ spine, elsewise a bright, clean collectable copy of the critically acclaimed British author's fourth book. 


It's a new academic year at the English University of Watermouth, and new styles and ideas are "in".


Nobody, however, is quite so new or so "in" as the Kirks; with a determinedly open marriage, they have become the most trendy couple on the campus. 


Howard has his affairs with his students and random faculty wives; Barbara has her love interest in London - and together, they hold parties that become locally famous. 


Anthony Burgess names this one of the best 99 novels since 1939.
