New edition published a few months after the first, with a “9ème édition” statement.
Some foxing to covers, two small tears at head and foot of spine, which also shows a light, pale dampstain.
Signed and inscribed by Samuel Beckett to Daniela Munieri and dated November 1953.
Inscriptions contemporary to the book’s publication and the play’s first staging in 1953 are of the utmost rarity. We have traced only seven such copies ever to have appeared on the market (inscribed to Maurice Nadeau, Philippe Bernstein, Henri and Josette Hayden, Robert Carlier, Leventhal, Geer van Velde and Louise Barbier).
