About this copy
This is the BCA book club edition, published in 1991 by arrangement with William Heinemann Ltd, and this particular copy is the 1992 reprint of that edition (not the 1988 Heinemann first edition). The novel itself was first copyrighted in 1988 by Yazoo, Inc. Hardcover in original dust jacket, featuring the well-known 'Death's-head Hawkmoth' cover design associated with the Thomas Harris novel and the 1991 film adaptation.
Condition
- Book
- Good – binding solid, no inscriptions noted in the photographed pages.
- Dust jacket
- Good – a closed tear to the front panel (lower right), with scuffing and light scratches to the rear panel consistent with handling and age.
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.
