A fine copy bound in gray cloth with red lettering on the spine and front panel and with red topstain in a very good dustwrapper. The dustwrapper shows a closed 1/4" tear at the head of the spine. A very nice copy of one of the author's best-known works. Huxley's biographer, Sybille Bedford, claims in her fictive memoir Jigsaw that the novel's characters Mary Amberley, a drug addict, and her daughter were partly inspired by her own experiences with her morphine-addicted mother and herself, known to Huxley because they were neighbours in the south of France. : Home.
