LINDQVIST, John Ajvade. Let the Right One In. Trans. From the Swedish by Ebba Segerberg. London: Quercus. 2007. Thick 8vo. First British edition, first printing. Publisher’s black cloth lettered in gilt to the spine, in the dust jacket. A very pleasing copy overall, the cloth clean and bright, the binding tight and square. The textblock edges with a few very minor marks, and one or two even more trivial marks to front endpaper, else fine. The dust jacket unclipped (£12.99), just a trifle bumped at extremities with a few minor marks, else fine.
Originally published in Swedish in 2004, this first English language edition appeared three years later, and a film followed a year after this publication. The story follows a curious 12-year-old who, bullied and cast aside by his peers, forms a friendship with a vampire child. Scarce.
