THEROUX, Alexander. Darconville’s Cat
New York: Doubleday. 1981. First edition. A beautiful first printing of the experimental author's magnum opus, a literary explosion of verbiage. The first issue with the checkerboard design at p.483 (which Theroux reportedly hated). Subsequent copies blacked-out the checkerboard. Signed without dedication by the author at the title page. A near fine book in a near fine unclipped dust jacket.
