About this copy

This is the first UK edition, first printing, of Armitage's book-length millennium poem, originally commissioned by Channel 4. The copyright page carries the complete number line ending in '1', confirming this is a first printing. Issued in Faber's poetry series binding without a dust jacket.

Condition

Book
Very Good – boards are clean with only minor surface marks and light shelf wear; text block appears clean and tight. No dust jacket.

This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
